FAQs for Newtimber
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Newtimber?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newtimber from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price

Repairing versus replacing in Newtimber

Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills straight away
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
