Questions from Burgh Muir
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
Across the UK, and that includes Burgh Muir. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
How much does worktop repair cost in Burgh Muir?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EH9 postcode.
About our worktop repair in Burgh Muir
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are gouges in the surface and a chipped quartz edge.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Burgh Muir
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Burgh Muir
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Burgh Muir
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burgh Muir. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
