Book worktop repair in St Mabyn

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Worktop repair in St Mabyn, done in place

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We’re often asked to fix gouges in the surface and burns from hot pans, in laminate, granite & marble and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Landlord and trade work in St Mabyn

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Mabyn as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

St Mabyn questions

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What affects the price in St Mabyn

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL30 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What your quote should include
