Worktop repair at your home in Achddu
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a dent from a dropped pan and a chipped edge.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Achddu and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
- Severe heat marks in quartz

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Questions from Achddu
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you cover the whole of Carmarthenshire?
Across the UK, so Achddu is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Achddu get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
