Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in English Bicknor

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to English Bicknor. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

English Bicknor: your questions answered

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, English Bicknor included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in English Bicknor

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Take a look at our full price list.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
