Worktop repair in Dreghorn without replacing anything
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix burns from hot pans and knife marks, on solid wood, laminate and granite & marble.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dreghorn as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Dreghorn
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Dreghorn included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep wood oiled
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
