FAQs for Tyne Dock
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Are there extra charges for Tyne Dock?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
How much do I need to move?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
How we handle worktop repair in Tyne Dock
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about cuts and scratches in the surface and chips on edges and corners.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean spills straight away
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Advice
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
