Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What affects the price in Mousehole

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mousehole. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in Mousehole

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A heat mark or burn

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Mousehole: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work in Mousehole?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Mousehole. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
