Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitehawk. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Whitehawk, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
