Worktop repair in St George, done in place

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. Nothing is taken out. Our technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are damage to a stone worktop and chips near the sink.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

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

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Common problems we fix in St George

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Chips on edges and corners

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in St George

Do you come to St George?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to St George for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

How do I book?

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in St George

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
