Worktop repair for Glais homes

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Glais

How soon can you come?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you cover the whole of Swansea?

We work UK-wide, so Glais is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What affects the price in Glais

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Glais. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
