Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Common questions in Tanerdy
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA31 postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Tanerdy, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
