DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Your questions about worktop repair in Trethurgy

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Clean spills right away
  • Never put hot pans down directly

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
