Worktop Repair in Craghead
Fixed-price worktop repair in Craghead and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on edges and corners
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What affects the price in Craghead
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Craghead. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Craghead questions
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
