How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NP20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Pillgwenlly: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

What we’re called out for in Pillgwenlly

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

For a price in Pillgwenlly, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 will not last.
