Choosing a repair company

Worktop repair in Fellside without replacing anything

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you’re dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and damage to a stone worktop, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Fellside. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
