How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Repair or replace in Newtown?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Newtown customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

When to call us in Newtown

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips caused during installation
  • A chipped edge
  • Burns from hot pans

How to compare quotes

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you’re in Newtown and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
