Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hesters Way. The price depends on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hesters Way, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hesters Way
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hesters Way use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hesters Way questions
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you cover Hesters Way?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Hesters Way from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repairing versus replacing in Hesters Way
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Wipe up spills quickly
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.
