For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hackney Wick. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Get a quote
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hackney Wick, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean spills immediately
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Do not let water sit on joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Hackney Wick
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about worktop repair in Hackney Wick
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Hackney Wick and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hackney Wick
- Solid wood
- Quartz
