Questions from Penpont
Do you come to Penpont?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Penpont. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Penpont. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Penpont. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Penpont?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

- One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
