About our worktop repair in Millbrook

Different worktops need different repairs: 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. Common call-outs are for chips caused during installation and scorch marks from pans, across granite & marble, solid wood and quartz.

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

  • A damaged sink edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips caused during installation

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Take a look at our full price list.

What affects the price in Millbrook

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Millbrook. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Common questions in Millbrook

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
