When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills immediately
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace in Y Waun?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
