How we handle worktop repair in Abercwmboi

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Whether it’s damage around the sink cut-out and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Abercwmboi

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

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit 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, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Common questions in Abercwmboi

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
