Worktop repair in Mills Hill

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What we can’t put right

  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
