Choosing a repair company

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Your questions about worktop repair in Newton-le-Willows

Are there extra charges for Newton-le-Willows?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How much does worktop repair cost in Newton-le-Willows?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WA12 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Repairing versus replacing in Newton-le-Willows

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, 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.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in St Helens and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
