How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Common questions in Cwm-y-glo

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

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

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

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we’re called out for in Cwm-y-glo

Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A damaged sink edge

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repair or replace in Cwm-y-glo?

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. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
