What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Coelbren. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Signs you need worktop repair in Coelbren

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips on edges and corners

Repair or replace in Coelbren?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Coelbren

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?

Everywhere in the UK, Coelbren included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Most clients in Coelbren get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
