DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Pontymister: your questions answered
Do you cover Pontymister?
We do. Technicians travel to Pontymister from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you cover the whole of Caerphilly?
The whole UK, including all of Caerphilly. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Are there extra charges for Pontymister?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Landlord and trade work in Pontymister
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
