Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pontlottyn. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Pontlottyn, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a chopping board
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep wood oiled
- Dry around the sink and joints
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
What we are called out for in Pontlottyn
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
- Chips in quartz or granite
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether a trained technician does the job

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?

What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Pontlottyn. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?

Landlord and trade work in Pontlottyn
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repairing versus replacing in Pontlottyn
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
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 price.
