Worktop repair in Cwmduad, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a chipped quartz edge and chips caused during installation.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Common questions in Cwmduad

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Are there extra charges for Cwmduad?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

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

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

When to call us in Cwmduad

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chipped corners
  • A chipped quartz edge

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
