Our technicians work on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about scorch marks from pans and chips on edges and corners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common questions in Longstone
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Longstone and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Longstone, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
