Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mill Green
If you manage property in Mill Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Mill Green
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Mill Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
