About our worktop repair in Rinsey Croft

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about knife marks and a chipped edge.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

When to call us in Rinsey Croft

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, 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. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

If you manage property in Rinsey Croft, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Rinsey Croft

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
