Trusted worktop repair in Tresavean

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

About our worktop repair in Tresavean

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We’re often asked to fix gouges in the surface and a heat mark or burn, across granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What we are called out for in Tresavean

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
