Your questions about worktop repair in Ystradowen
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Do you work in Ystradowen?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ystradowen for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Advice
What affects the price in Ystradowen
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ystradowen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
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 over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Landlord and trade work in Ystradowen

What we are called out for in Ystradowen
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- A damaged sink edge
- Knife marks
- Chips on edges and corners
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Repairing versus replacing in Ystradowen
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
