Repairing versus replacing in Llandaff

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Work done at your home or business

Worktop repair in Llandaff, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What affects the price in Llandaff

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Llandaff. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Clean spills immediately

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Common questions in Llandaff

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
