Gilfachreda questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
About our worktop repair in Gilfachreda
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are gouges in the surface and damage around the sink cut-out.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gilfachreda as everywhere else we work.

Do you need worktop repair in Gilfachreda?
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works
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 clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
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 quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
