About our worktop repair in Walkergate
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you are dealing with a damaged sink edge and a heat mark or burn, we can typically put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Clean spills immediately
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Walkergate questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common problems we fix in Walkergate
The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Dents and gouges
- Chips on edges and corners
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What else we do in Walkergate
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairs by material
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 tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
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.
