How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

FAQs for East Compton
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Failed support under the worktop
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole worktop
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Compton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why choose Surface Doctor in East Compton
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before you book
See our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 won’t last.

Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Compton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Compton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
