Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Choosing a repair company

Gellinudd questions

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

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 repair several things at once?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Repair or replace in Gellinudd?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Gellinudd

  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz
  • Laminate

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
