Worktop repair in Martin Mill without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and people most often call us about a heat mark or burn and chips in quartz or granite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Martin Mill

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Martin Mill is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Granite and stone

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Martin Mill. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
