Work for landlords and builders

- Dents and gouges
- A damaged sink edge

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What your worktop is made of matters

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Newton: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Normally. A picture lets us check.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Are there extra charges for Newton?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wakefield.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Repairing versus replacing in Newton
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
