Worktop repair at your home in Craighouse

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include chips on edges and corners and chips in quartz or granite, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 normally cheaper.

What we’re called out for in Craighouse

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

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

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

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

What affects the price in Craighouse

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Craighouse. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Craighouse

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills right away
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

What we work on

  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
