Worktop repair at your home in Penrhiwtyn
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on granite & marble, solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are a chipped edge and scratches and knife marks.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Penrhiwtyn and across Neath Port Talbot.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Penrhiwtyn
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When to call us in Penrhiwtyn
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A damaged sink edge
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips in quartz or granite
- A dent from a dropped pan
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Clean spills straight away
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Common questions in Penrhiwtyn
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
