Repair or replace a kitchen cabinet chip?

It’s like locking your keys in the car. As soon as damage to your kitchen cabinet happens, you wish you could go back a few seconds to stop it from happening. However, much like locking your keys in your car, it can quickly become a complicated and expensive activity. The existing cabinetry will need to be measured up, the impacted door or drawer likely removed, a replacement made (hopefully colour matched and your existing kitchen is still the same colour), and then once available, have it installed. Ideally without causing any other damage to the surrounding cabinet. Many times this is completed by an accredited cabinet maker, and will leave you without a door on your cabinet for a week or two. All to remove damage that may have been repairable.

Before you pay full price for replacing a kitchen cabinet, talk to our friendly team about cost-effective repair options.
With repairs, our team of local experts use the best market leading products to quickly fill kitchen cabinet chips or scratches, and then closely match the colour and surface texture, making them no longer be the first thing you see in your kitchen.

Our repair solutions have been tried and tested over the last 20 years, so we have confidence that they will stand reasonable wear and tear.

FIX ‘N’ CHIPS offers care instructions to help ensure your repair lasts and a 12-month warranty. There are some exceptions, so please discuss with your local repair expert to make sure this applies to your repair.

So not only do you avoid the hassle and expense of having a door removed from your cabinetry, and any possible delays in sourcing the replacement, we can also be there quickly and much cheaper so you can go back to enjoying your kitchen the way you like it. Additionally, we also repair chips on kitchen tiles, bathroom cabinets, flooring and more.

To find out more, get in touch and share a photo for a free review and quote. Please note that not all damage to kitchen cabinets is repairable, but we’ll let you know once you send through a photo so as to not waste your time.

What are the benefits of using FIX ‘N’ CHIPS for kitchen cabinet repairs?

Fast and reliable services with significant savings and amazing results – Our service eliminates the need for builders or residential clients paying full price on removing and installing a new kitchen cabinet, plus the risk of impacting the surrounding kitchen during removal.

What kitchen cabinet damage can’t you fix?

If you have a large crack or water damage to your cabinets, which impacts the integrity of the underlying structure, unfortunately these may need more than a chip or scratch repair to resolve. If we think something can’t be repaired, we’ll be upfront and honest with you. So if we think it’s something we can’t do, we’ll let you know and ideally point you to someone that can help.

To see if your kitchen cabinet can be repaired, please get in touch and share through a photo of the damage. We’ll then let you know if it’s something we can help with, or if not, who may be able to assist.

How long does a kitchen cabinet repair last?

Each repair is unique, so it does depend on the original level of damage and the impact on the underlying kitchen cabinet structure. We are also mindful of the colour and light in your kitchen, as this is what we need to match as part of the repair process. We do follow a proven process with products that have been tried and tested over the past 20 years. The FIX ‘N’ CHIPS repair process is designed to make highly visible damage no longer the first thing you see.

The length of time a kitchen cabinet repair lasts depends on a range of factors. The most common examples are: the level of damage, the amount of direct light on the repair area, and the ongoing care and maintenance.

The repair solutions we use are designed to last a reasonable amount of time with good care and maintenance. A key part of this is ensuring you don’t clean the repaired area with aggressive cleaners which can impact the quality of the repair finish.

FIX ‘N’ CHIPS offers care instructions to help ensure your repair lasts and a 12-month warranty. There are some exceptions, so please discuss with your local franchisee chip repair expert to make sure this applies to your repair.

How long does a kitchen cabinet repair take?

There are a few variables that can impact the amount of time it takes to repair a kitchen cabinet. The key ones are the size and location of the chip/scratch, the colour and texture of the surface we need to match, and the number of chips/scratches needed repairing.

To get a free quote, please get in touch with us with the address of the job and a photo of the damage. We can use this to provide an estimate to save you the cost and time of a site visit.

That being said, it commonly takes about 1 to 2 hours to repair a chip in a kitchen cabinet.

Alan did a great job repairing chip in our bathroom floor tile so much so the tile looks as new. Thanks Alan.
I cannot recommend FIXN'CHIPS highly enough. When I emailed the company to request a quote for chips in 2 shower bases, Amy promptly replied to tell me that unfortunately they did not service my area. However rather than leave it at that, she went above & beyond to contact one of the other franchisees in another area, and see if they would quote my job. Naz from Gippsland contacted me almost straight away and we organised for him to do my job.
Naz was prompt, very professional and easy to deal with and did a fantastic repair for a good price, with the shower bases looking brand new.
Gary did an absolutely magical transformation on my cupboard side panel. He did a seamless fix to a chip in the corner and was an all around legend! Easy to schedule with, happy to drive all the way out to Murwillimbah and gave me a discount as well. Thank you soooo much Gary for all your help - I definitely recommend! (The photos speak for themselves!)
A week after we moved into our brand new house I dropped a casserole and it fell onto the floor smashing a small area of two adjoining tiles. They are quite large and the damage was noticeable, but we thought the only option was to replace both tiles, which would have been a big job. Consequently nothing was done and that was 7 years ago! I read an article in the local paper about Matt and Shannon opening Fix n Chips. I made contact and sent a photo of the damage. They made contact straight away, Matt came two days later and after an hour and a half the damage was fixed with no mess or need of replacing the tiles. My husband and I were absolutely delighted with the result. Matt was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend their business.
Vinay of the south Melbourne branch did an amazing job on a stone bench chip repair. Very impressed
We work with Andrew & Janette on a regular basis, and they are trustworthy, reliable, punctual, and most importantly friendly! Part of our amazing maintenance team and people we rely on. Thanks guys.
Fix N Chips did a terrific job fixing a chip in a bathroom vanity. Seemless repair and easy to work with - reliable and friendly. Thank you
Andrew attended as scheduled to repair our kitchen bench. The repair was so perfect I can no longer find where the chip was. Highly recommended. 😁
Thank you Alan for your promptness and doing a great job fixing the chips on my island bench. You were very professional, friendly and efficient. I would highly recommend you to anyone. That's why I'm giving you a five star review.
I can’t recommend Fix and Chips highly enough! I recently had security screens installed and was left with two windows covered in screw holes — 24 in total! I honestly didn’t think anyone could fix the mess, but how wrong I was.

Ben came out in windy conditions and did an incredible job. He filled every hole and perfectly colour-matched the paintwork — you’d never even know the damage was there. I’m beyond impressed and so grateful to Fix and Chips for turning something that had been such an ongoing eyesore into absolute perfection. Thank you so much!
Benny from sunny coast, couldn’t thank him enough! Absolute legend, done a killer job on my counter top🔥
Excellent repair on a fairly large chip out of our ceaserstone countertop. We had Andrew come and complete our repair and were really impressed with the colour matching and the job he did. Lovely guy who was happy to ask the millions for questions dished out by the kids 😂.
These guys are the best. I was completely amazed how good the result came up at a great price compared to a new bathtub. Well done Ben you are an artist thank you guys
Jack from Lara Fix & Chips did an amazing job of our bath and ensuite floor - can’t even see where he fixed the chips they are so perfect. Highly recommend and very reasonably priced.
Gary from Gold Coast franchise was amazing and fixed my bench top chips in no time! Great guy & great results. Will use again if needed!
Gary is the king. Awesome job. Highly recommend
Matt was transparent and informative from the very beginning. He had a very tight schedule and let me know that from the beginning so I could make an informed decision whether I wanted to wait or not.
He was very personable and professional whilst in my home and the workmanship was 10 out of 10.
Will definitely use again and will recommend.
Great service and communication from the team in Roxburgh Park, would recommend for any benchtop repairs
Gary attended & did a great job fixing the chip in my basin
Great service and Matt was a delight to deal with. We had 2 large chips in a massive stone bench. Matt fixed them beautifully. A big thank you !
Matt and Shannon did a great job in removing the burn mark on my laminex bench top. It is now extremely difficult to see where the repair is on the bench. Well done.
Gary OBrien is a magician. We had chips in the stone bench and chips in the floor tiles. You now wouldn’t be able to tell after he weaved his magic. Such a nice guy to boot.
We have used Gus Faithful on two occasions for kitchen cupboard repairs and were very happy with his work. He was punctual, skilled and took great care with every detail. We can highly recommend Gus. John & Tina, New Norfolk.
Absolutely blown away by Vinay’s work for us in Melbourne’s west. He was extremely responsive, moved days around to accommodate us, repaired nearly 40 chips in a stone bench top (damaged by tenants), and then worked his magic on large chips in 2-pack kitchen cupboards. I couldn’t be happier.
Gary was great. He fixed the chipped tile in my apartment and it literally disappeared.
Ahmed from Peninsula fix’n’chips was friendly, on time, and did a great job! Thank you!
Vinay was super professional, very attentive and most importantly did an amazing job with the chips!
After a tradie accidentally drilling a hole in our new kitchen bench top, I was devastated. I discovered Matt and Shan's card at the hardware store and thought it was worth a shot—definitely better than replacing the entire bench top. They did an incredible job, and it’s nearly impossible to spot where the hole was. Thanks to them, we don't need to replace the bench top, and my kitchen looks perfect. Plus, they were both a pleasure to have around while they worked!
Friendly, efficient service and a fantastic result.
We couldn’t be happier with the job Shan did on a chipped tile. I had to go back and look at the original photo I had sent because I couldn’t remember which tile had been chipped! It had been repaired with such precision. Shan and Matt were both highly professional and communicative. They are a great service to have in our area that will save lots of money and time by getting things repaired instead of replaced.
Ahmed was very friendly and insightful when explaining how he was going fix some chipped tiles in the kitchen. He showed up on time and worked efficiently, the tiles look as good as new. Would recommend to anyone!
Easy and quick, they done a fantastic job fixing our window frame.
Thank you very much appreciated.
Shannon and Matt are wonderful people and always work hard to make the customer happy! Highly recommend!
Excellent and friendly service. Alan is very good at what he does!
Matt did an excellent job repairing two chips on our kitchen bench and one on the bathroom basin. The workmanship was top quality. He was professional, friendly, and easy to deal with from start to finish. Highly recommend Fix n Chips Brisbane!
Craig. QLD. Unbelievably good work. So impressed. You can’t see the marks in the bath & they were bad. Well mannered & we are thrilled
Vinay was fantastic. I'm in the inner western suburbs of melbourne. He came within a couple of days - was very lovely and easy to communicate with. He did a FANTASTIC job on a matt white stone bath that had two chips on it. Just a total magician - can't even tell it was ever chipped. Thanks Vinay!
Gary came over to fix my benchtop that was chipped, I can’t even tell where it was! Fantastic job!! Would highly recommend!!
Amazing! Chips, scratches all gone. Perfect solution to bring back to new and shiny! Great, friendly professional service would highly recommend.
Matt from Fix’n’Chips was amazing. Did a fantastic job on a difficult bench repair. Very happy with the result. Friendly service and great attention to detail. Thankyou.
Ahmed came to fox a chip in my bath. He did a great job. Very professional and a lovely fellow. Highly recommend
I'm absolutely floored. I did not expect the chips to be completely disappeared. I thought I'd be able to tell when I looked at the area, however Rob is an absolute GENIUS and the chips we had in our apartment have completed vanished. I am so, so, so impressed. Surpassed all my expectations. Would highly recommend!!!!!
Gary O’Brien the Gold Coast owner/operator was amazing, the transformation from a horrible chip in the middle of the kitchen to looking like a new tile. The colour matching and finish are absolutely perfect, thanks Gary for your professional approach and also being so easy to work with.

Recommendation is 5+ stars.
Gus did a very professional job fixing the chip in my benchtop. Was able to fix it to look the same. Highly recommend
Gus in Hobart did a top job repairing three chips on our kitchen benchtop and repairing a chip in a stone top dining table. All are so well colour matched you have to look very hard to see them. Gus was prompt in responding, quickly fit us in and took the time to explain how he was approaching the work. Thanks!
Gus at Fix’n’Chips did a superb job of fixing chips in our kitchen cabinetry, stone bench-tops and shower tiles. He colour-matched all surfaces perfectly and his expertise in repairing the damaged areas was excellent. Gus is professional at all times, communicates well and achieves great results.
