Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Common questions in Ynyswen
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Ynyswen?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ynyswen from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Usually, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Ynyswen
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

- Laminate
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
