When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What affects the price in Hessle
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WF4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Hessle: your questions answered
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do you work in Hessle?
We do. We send a technician to Hessle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
