  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

How to compare quotes

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

What affects the price in Cwm-ffrwd-oer

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Cwm-ffrwd-oer

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about worktop repair in Cwm-ffrwd-oer

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
