Worktop repair in Helston without replacing anything
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the sink cut-out and knife marks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Helston.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Helston
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use a chopping board
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Re-oil timber worktops
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Helston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
