FAQs for Melin-cwrt

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?

All of Neath Port Talbot, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Melin-cwrt as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Neath Port Talbot and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

What affects the price in Melin-cwrt

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Melin-cwrt. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Melin-cwrt. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, 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 morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
