FAQs for Newbiggin

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Newbiggin?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

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.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
