Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Advice
FAQs for Hopwood
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Hopwood?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you work in Hopwood?
We do. We send a technician to Hopwood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the entire of Rochdale?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Hopwood. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hopwood
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hopwood as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Rochdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
