Mellor questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Mellor?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Mellor. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Worktop repair at your home in Mellor
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a damaged sink edge and chips caused during installation.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mellor. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
