Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our full price list.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. 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 price.

Advice

Do you need worktop repair in Newfield?

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips on edges and corners

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Newfield: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What areas do you cover?

All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
