Worktop repair at your home in Caerhowel

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. If you’re dealing with burns from hot pans and a chipped quartz edge, we can typically put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to compare quotes

Caerhowel questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SY15 postcode.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you come to Caerhowel?

We do. Technicians travel to Caerhowel from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Caerhowel, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
