Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Font-y-gary: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Font-y-gary.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What do you need from me?

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep joints and edges dry
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 burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
