Landlords, agents and businesses in Hoe
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairing versus replacing in Hoe
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Your questions about worktop repair in Hoe
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
