About our worktop repair in Llanrhystud

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and cuts and scratches in the surface.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Do you need worktop repair in Llanrhystud?

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Llanrhystud: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
