Worktop repair at your home in Newbarns
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are scratches and knife marks and a heat mark or burn.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newbarns. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Newbarns questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Are there extra charges for Newbarns?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover Newbarns?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newbarns and the rest of Cumbria. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
