DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we handle worktop repair in Portwrinkle
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and people most frequently call us about cuts and scratches in the surface and scorch marks from pans.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Portwrinkle and across Cornwall.

What else we do in Portwrinkle
Repairing versus replacing in Portwrinkle
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
When to call us in Portwrinkle
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chipped corners
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Scratches and knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
Questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Portwrinkle
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Portwrinkle
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Re-oil timber worktops
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
