Worktop repair in Luxulyan

How we handle worktop repair in Luxulyan

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you’re dealing with scorch marks from pans and gouges in the surface, we can typically put it right, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use a chopping board

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.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Luxulyan. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PL30 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Luxulyan

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
