Why repair rather than replace?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Goldsithney. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Goldsithney, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TR20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
