What affects the price in East Peckham

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Worktop repair at your home in East Peckham

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are frequently asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and gouges in the surface, in laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for East Peckham

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you need worktop repair in East Peckham?

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips near the sink
  • Scorch marks from pans

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in East Peckham?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in East Peckham

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting 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. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
