Worktop repair for Cogan homes

About our worktop repair in Cogan

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and quartz, and people most frequently call us about damage from fitting or building work and cuts and scratches in the surface.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our pricing.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

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.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Cogan questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cogan.

Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?

The entire UK, including all of Cardiff. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cogan use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Cogan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
