About our worktop repair in Vaynor

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped quartz edge and a damaged sink edge.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Merthyr Tydfil.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Vaynor

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What affects the price in Vaynor

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Common problems we fix in Vaynor

Edges and corners chip most often, normally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chipped corners
  • Dents and gouges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Vaynor: your questions answered

Do you repair quartz?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Merthyr Tydfil.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Landlord and trade work in Vaynor

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Vaynor use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF48 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
