Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Coed-y-cwm
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire worktop
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Should you replace it?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a chopping board
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
