Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When to call us in Fremington

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips caused during installation

Comparing quotes

  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

FAQs for Fremington

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Fremington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
