How we handle worktop repair in Mill Green

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or building work and chips on edges and corners, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Mill Green

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood

What affects the price in Mill Green

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Mill Green get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Mill Green

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
