DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips near the sink

Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Auldgirth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Auldgirth questions
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you come to Auldgirth?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Auldgirth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
