- Repairs from £95

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common questions in Llanuwchllyn
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Llanuwchllyn and the rest of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
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.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Repairing versus replacing in Llanuwchllyn
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. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
