Repairing versus replacing in Pontlliw

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pontlliw use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

FAQs for Pontlliw

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire worktop

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
