About our worktop repair in Hinton Ampner

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and gouges in the surface.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Hinton Ampner

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Dents and gouges

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

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

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we work on in Hinton Ampner

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hinton Ampner

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
