Worktop repair near Newtown

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Worktop repair in Newtown without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks, in quartz, granite & marble and solid wood.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Common questions in Newtown

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Landlord and trade work in Newtown

For anyone letting property in or around Newtown, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
