Discover how BBK Direct is making buying kitchen worktops simpler, faster, and cheaper with our new smart planning tool.

Buying new kitchen worktops used to be a headache. You’d have to calculate huge slabs of material, guess how much wastage you’d have, and often end up paying for far more granite, quartz, or timber than you actually needed.

At BBK Direct, we believe creating your dream kitchen shouldn’t involve complicated maths or paying for wasted material.

That’s why we are thrilled to introduce the UK Worktop Helper. This innovative online tool is designed to streamline the entire process of buying worktops, splashbacks, and upstands, ensuring you get the perfect fit at the best possible price.

It’s just another way BBK Direct makes things simpler, faster, and cheaper.

The Smart Way to Buy Worktops

The UK Worktop Helper isn't just a calculator; it's an intelligent planning engine. The biggest challenge in buying worktops isn't choosing the colour—it's figuring out how your kitchen layout fits onto the standard stock sizes available from manufacturers.

Get it wrong, and you buy two giant slabs when you only needed one and a half.

Our new tool solves this. It takes your unique layout and automatically "nests" the pieces against real-time stock availability, finding the most efficient combination to minimise waste and maximise your savings.

How to Use the UK Worktop Helper in 5 Easy Steps

Planning your project takes just a few minutes. Follow this simple process flow to get your instant price estimate.

Step 1: Draw & Define Your Layout

Forget complicated CAD software. Our intuitive interface allows you to easily input the dimensions for your required worktops, splashbacks, and upstands. Crucially, this is where you add specific cutouts (sinks, hobs) by simply dragging them onto your 2D plan.

Step 2: Select Your Material

Now for the fun part. Visualise how your kitchen will look by selecting from our massive range of premium brands. Whether you are looking for solid wood, quartz, or granite, you can apply different materials and finishes with a click.

Step 3: System Optimization (The Magic Step!)

This is where the UK Worktop Helper truly shines. It instantly compares your specific drawing against all available stock board sizes and calculates the most cost-effective way to cut your project. It does the hard work for you.
