What affects the price in Cantley

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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

  • A damaged sink edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Dents and gouges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Common questions in Cantley

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Cantley and the rest of Doncaster. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Cantley

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Read our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
