Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Efail Fach

Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?

We cover the entire UK, including Efail Fach and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Efail Fach?

We do. We send a technician to Efail Fach for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
