Wallsend: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

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

About our worktop repair in Wallsend

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and a heat mark or burn, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common problems we fix in Wallsend

Edges and corners chip most often, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Scratches and knife marks

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wallsend

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
