Worktop repair at your home in Llanhilleth

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips in quartz or granite.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Llanhilleth. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

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

Ask for a price

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

Questions from Llanhilleth

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Llanhilleth included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything

When a repair is not the answer

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
