Worktop repair in Addiewell, West Lothian
We travel to Addiewell for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Chips in quartz or granite
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
About our worktop repair in Addiewell
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix a damaged sink edge and scorch marks from pans, across laminate, granite & marble and quartz.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we are called out for in Addiewell
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chipped corners
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Damage from fitting or building work
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep wood oiled
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills right away
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Addiewell: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work in Addiewell?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Addiewell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Addiewell, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
