When to call us in Smethwick Green

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Dents and gouges
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Smethwick Green

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What affects the price in Smethwick Green

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CW11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Smethwick Green

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A photo lets us check.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Clean spills right away
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
