- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Discolouration deep in quartz

Hesleden questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Which areas do you work in?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hesleden. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
