He also tackles any items that need his expertise in his workshop, based near the star's home. ‌He covered his move to Cornwall in the UKTV documentary, Dom Chinea's Cornish Workshop , which aired earlier this year. It appears it'll need to wait, though, as Dominic said he'd suffered a painful injury. Away from the workshop, Dominic previously told followers he was trying to transform his property with wildflowers and a new pond.
