Worktop repair in Newsham without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and damage around the sink cut-out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What to look for in a quote

10 questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Newsham questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you come to Newsham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Newsham and the rest of Northumberland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
