The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on laminate, quartz and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about damage around the sink cut-out and gouges in the surface.

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winkhill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Winkhill: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Winkhill.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  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. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Winkhill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Winkhill

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Winkhill

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Winkhill. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
