How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Common questions in Upper Abercanaid

Do you cover the entire of Merthyr Tydfil?

The whole UK, including all of Merthyr Tydfil. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for Upper Abercanaid?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you come to Upper Abercanaid?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Upper Abercanaid and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Abercanaid

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Upper Abercanaid?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
