How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep wood oiled

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Merthyr Tydfil questions

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you cover Merthyr Tydfil?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Merthyr Tydfil and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Do you need worktop repair in Merthyr Tydfil?

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scratches and knife marks

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Merthyr Tydfil. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you are in Merthyr Tydfil and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
