Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairing versus replacing in Blaencaerau

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about worktop repair in Blaencaerau

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Wood

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

What we’re called out for in Blaencaerau

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chipped corners
  • Dents and gouges

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Blaencaerau, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
