Repairing versus replacing in Wheal Rose

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Wheal Rose customers choose us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Do you need worktop repair in Wheal Rose?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Damage to a stone worktop

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Wheal Rose

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wheal Rose. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wheal Rose, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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