Common questions in New Mills

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?

We cover the whole UK, including New Mills and the rest of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in New Mills

Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What worktop repair costs

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

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire worktop

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

If you manage property in New Mills, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
