Trusted worktop repair in Creigiau

Worktop repair in Creigiau without replacing anything

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. We work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are scratches and knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common problems we fix in Creigiau

  • Knife marks
  • Chips near the sink

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Creigiau

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

Creigiau: your questions answered

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?

The entire UK, including all of Cardiff. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
