Problem with your worktop in Lower Porthpean? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Worktop repair in Lower Porthpean without replacing anything
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and snagging damage in a new kitchen.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Porthpean. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Porthpean
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
