How we handle worktop repair in Minions
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from fitting or building work and chips on edges and corners.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit

FAQs for Minions
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cornwall.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Repair or replace in Minions?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
