How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Rinsey. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
For a price in Rinsey, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use a chopping board
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
How it 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 any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- 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 earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Questions from Rinsey
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Rinsey?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
