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.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Landlord and trade work in Abercynon

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Rhondda Cynon Taff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Abercynon

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
