Worktop repair for Underwood homes

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newport and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

About our worktop repair in Underwood

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are a heat mark or burn and cuts and scratches in the surface.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Underwood

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Underwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

Different materials, different repairs

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 crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Underwood.

Do you cover the whole of Newport?
