Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Pentwynberth-lwyd, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

  • No extra charge for your area

  • A fixed quote before you book

Take a look at our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Pentwynberth-lwyd: your questions answered

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are there extra charges for Pentwynberth-lwyd?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
