Worktop repair near Y Fan

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Y Fan and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

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

Y Fan: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
