Hele: your questions answered
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hele as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
