For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Worktop repair in Upton, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and a chipped quartz edge.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Your questions about worktop repair in Upton

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

How much does worktop repair cost in Upton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your EX23 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

What affects the price in Upton

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
