Hever: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Common problems we fix in Hever

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A chipped quartz edge

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Repair or replace in Hever?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Hever customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Hever, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What affects the price in Hever

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
