How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Landlord and trade work in Gyllyngvase
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Gyllyngvase

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Gyllyngvase
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
Common reasons people in Gyllyngvase contact us include:
- Chips near the sink
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
- Scratches and knife marks
Before you book anyone

- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Common questions in Gyllyngvase
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Gyllyngvase?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR11 postcode.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Gyllyngvase, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
