Chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops in St Erme, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep wood oiled
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Worktop repair in St Erme, done in place
We repair worktops in place. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and people most often call us about scorch marks from pans and scratches and knife marks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in St Erme and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

St Erme: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in St Erme.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including St Erme. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
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.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire worktop
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
