Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Goetre Fawr. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Signs you need worktop repair in Goetre Fawr
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Gouges in the surface
- Scratches and knife marks
- A chipped quartz edge
- A damaged sink edge
