Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Knotford

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlord and trade work in Knotford

If you manage property in Knotford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leeds and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Questions from Knotford

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are there extra charges for Knotford?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
