DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Clean spills right away
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We do not add 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.

What we are called out for in Hele
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: 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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- A heat mark or burn
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common questions in Hele

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
