Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Solid surface

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

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

FAQs for St Martin

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR12 postcode.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price
