DIY kit or professional repair?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz

Your questions about worktop repair in Freshbrook

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Freshbrook is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

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, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Freshbrook. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
