Worktop repair in Shop, Cornwall
Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops in Shop, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Chips on edges and corners
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Worktop repair in Shop, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about cuts and scratches in the surface and a heat mark or burn.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shop
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shop use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.
