DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
About our worktop repair in Trethewey
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most often call us about scorch marks from pans and damage from fitting or building work.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Trethewey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
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.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Look out for any of the following:
- Chips caused during installation
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A chipped edge
- A heat mark or burn
