Worktop repair at your home in Galon Uchaf
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Typical jobs include chips on edges and corners and cuts and scratches in the surface, across laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Questions from Galon Uchaf
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Galon Uchaf?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF47 postcode.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and 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. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
