Repair or replace in Hockerley?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Hockerley
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hockerley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Hockerley: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically. Send us a picture and we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Clean spills straight away
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SK23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Hockerley
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
