How we handle worktop repair in Crossroads

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix scratches and knife marks and damage from fitting or building work, across granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Crossroads

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Crossroads?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Crossroads and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Crossroads

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Crossroads

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Crossroads

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Crossroads, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
