Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Newlands
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Questions from Newlands
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How much does worktop repair cost in Newlands?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G43 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
