Worktop repair in Gateshead without replacing anything
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Common call-outs are for dents and gouges and a damaged sink edge, in quartz, solid wood and laminate.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.
Repairing versus replacing in Gateshead
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gateshead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Gateshead
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Gateshead. Prices do not change with location.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
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 is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Gateshead. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Wipe up spills quickly
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
