About our worktop repair in Newton Stewart

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We’re often asked to fix a chipped edge and knife marks, on laminate, solid wood and quartz.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Questions from Newton Stewart

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Newton Stewart.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Newton Stewart, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit
