DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing in Newmarket
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Newmarket. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What information do you need?

Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A top that moves on its units
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
