Worktop repair for Hoscar homes

Worktop repair in Hoscar, done in place

We repair worktops in place. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged sink edge and knife marks.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hoscar and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Common problems we fix in Hoscar

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chipped edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Hoscar questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hoscar

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
