Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
What we are called out for in Dollar
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips near the sink
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Dents and gouges
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Repairing versus replacing in Dollar
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
FAQs for Dollar
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Are there extra charges for Dollar?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What affects the price in Dollar
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
