Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Newtown. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF45 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Rhondda Cynon Taff and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
