Repairs by material
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Mill Corner

What we do, step by step

- The area around the damage is protected.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

- Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Mill Corner, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Questions from Mill Corner
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
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.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Mill Corner?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
