10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Abertillery

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area

Abertillery: your questions answered

Do you repair quartz?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Blaenau Gwent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abertillery

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Repairs by material

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Abertillery. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
