Worktop repair in Newtown without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for chipped corners and a dent from a dropped pan, across laminate, granite & marble and solid wood.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How to compare quotes

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Repair or replace in Newtown?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

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 frequently lifts.

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.

FAQs for Newtown

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How much does worktop repair cost in Newtown?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
