The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Newton

What else we do in Newton
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Newton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Tameside and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What we’re called out for in Newton
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chipped corners
- A chipped quartz edge
- Gouges in the surface
- Burns from hot pans

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Questions from Newton
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
