DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Landlord and trade work in Groes-faen

For anyone letting property in or around Groes-faen, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Common questions in Groes-faen

Do you come to Groes-faen?

We do. Technicians travel to Groes-faen from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can you do it?

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

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Groes-faen?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
