About our worktop repair in Long Newton
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Typical jobs include a heat mark or burn and chips in quartz or granite, across solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Dry around the sink and joints
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Your questions about worktop repair in Long Newton
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are there extra charges for Long Newton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole worktop
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Long Newton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
