How we handle worktop repair in Nant-y-cafn
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair laminate, solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a chipped quartz edge and chips caused during installation.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Nant-y-cafn
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Neath Port Talbot. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What else we do in Nant-y-cafn
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
