Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Newbold Heath
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newbold Heath. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Do not let water sit on joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
Repairing versus replacing in Newbold Heath
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
