What affects the price in Hose
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Hose questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Hose?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, so Hose is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Hose
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Other services in Hose
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
