Worktop repair in Pen-y-fan, done in place
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or building work and burns from hot pans.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pen-y-fan and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-y-fan
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
