How we handle worktop repair in Pontygwaith

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and people most often call us about chips on edges and corners and dents and gouges.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our pricing.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
