How we handle worktop repair in Cwmdare

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include damage from fitting or building work and chipped corners, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cwmdare. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Cwmdare: your questions answered

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Rhondda Cynon Taff.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Cwmdare included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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 chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
