What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ynyswen

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Ynyswen customers choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about worktop repair in Ynyswen

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How much does worktop repair cost in Ynyswen?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What affects the price in Ynyswen

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ynyswen. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
