Trusted worktop repair in Millbrook

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

About our worktop repair in Millbrook

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about scratches and knife marks and chips in quartz or granite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Millbrook

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Why repair rather than replace?

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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
