Worktop repair in Upton Towans, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for knife marks and dents and gouges, in quartz, laminate and solid wood.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Common questions in Upton Towans
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cornwall.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Do not let water sit on joints
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
