What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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 photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Clean spills right away
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Millthorpe questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
