What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hoaden. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hoaden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Hoaden, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

  • Work done at your home or business

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills right away
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When to call us in Hoaden

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips caused during installation

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Hoaden

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work in Hoaden?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hoaden and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
