DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Newtown

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our full price list.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

What we’re called out for in Newtown

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped edge

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz

Newtown: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

What affects the price in Newtown

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire worktop

If you are in Newtown and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
