Questions from Cymmer
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you come to Cymmer?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cymmer and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Use a chopping board
- Re-oil timber worktops
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95.
