Ocker Hill: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover the whole of Wolverhampton?

All of Wolverhampton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What we’re called out for in Ocker Hill

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use a chopping board
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What affects the price in Ocker Hill

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ocker Hill. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Ocker Hill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Ocker Hill

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

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 quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
