Worktop repair in South Tehidy, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and damage from fitting or building work.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: 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.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in South Tehidy, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
