What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hoyland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hoyland

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Hoyland

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips caused during installation

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Hoyland. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hoyland, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
