Worktop repair in Newbury, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and a dent from a dropped pan.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Newbury?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Newbury, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Newbury questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When to call us in Newbury
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
- A damaged sink edge
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbury as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
