Rowlands Gill: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover the entire of Gateshead?
The entire UK, including all of Gateshead. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rowlands Gill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Clean spills straight away
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Rowlands Gill
Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Chips near the sink
- A chipped edge
- Scratches and knife marks
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
