Your questions about worktop repair in Newnham

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Worktop repair at your home in Newnham

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and people most often call us about a chipped edge and chips in quartz or granite.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Newnham?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG27 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Newnham

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
