Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rhydlafr as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rhydlafr. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Signs you need worktop repair in Rhydlafr

- Chips caused during installation

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Keep wood oiled
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.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
