Common questions in Dunston
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Worktop repair at your home in Dunston
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new kitchen and a heat mark or burn, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your S41 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
