Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bonnyrigg. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What else we do in Bonnyrigg
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t let water sit on joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
FAQs for Bonnyrigg
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Midlothian.
What information do you need?
