Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

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

Granite and stone

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

How we handle worktop repair in Y Bala

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for damage around the sink cut-out and gouges in the surface, across laminate, granite & marble and quartz.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need worktop repair in Y Bala?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips in quartz or granite

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
