How we handle worktop repair in Tremorfa

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about chipped corners and chips caused during installation.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Tremorfa

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tremorfa. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Tremorfa, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need worktop repair in Tremorfa?

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

  • A heat mark or burn

  • Damage to a stone worktop

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tremorfa

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Tremorfa, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
