Worktop repair in Tregew without replacing anything
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s chips in quartz or granite and gouges in the surface, we can usually put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use a chopping board
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tregew. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
