What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
When to call us in Cyncoed
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Burns from hot pans
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- A chipped edge
- Chips caused during installation
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
What affects the price in Cyncoed
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode

- One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep joints and edges dry
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cyncoed
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
