Worktop repair at your home in Adamsdown

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new kitchen and a dent from a dropped pan.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Advice

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, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Adamsdown

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are there extra charges for Adamsdown?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Keep wood oiled

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 burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
