Mile End questions
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Mile End?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Advice

Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mile End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills straight away
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
