For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hoby. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hoby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Hoby
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does worktop repair cost in Hoby?

Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
