Common questions in Gwaun Treoda
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?
All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Usually, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
