Landlord and trade work in Hive
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
About our worktop repair in Hive
Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and damage from fitting or building work, across granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
What affects the price in Hive
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
