How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Newchapel, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks

Common questions in Newchapel

Are there extra charges for Newchapel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills immediately

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
