Why repair rather than replace?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common questions in Craig Llangiwg

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Craig Llangiwg?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

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.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
