Landlord and trade work in Gretna

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Worktop repair in Gretna without replacing anything
You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and damage from fitting or building work.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What else we do in Gretna
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Our visits in DG16 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. From Central Avenue, Graitney and Kirtle Place or anywhere nearby, a technician can come to you.

What’s near Gretna
Typical jobs here are in homes near St Andrew's Church of Scotland and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Gretna Green station, about 0.5 miles north. Further afield, we also cover the area around Gretna Green Story Exhibition (0.8 miles north).
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Questions from Gretna
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Normally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Are there extra charges for Gretna?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Gretna?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Gretna from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a chopping board
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Dry around the sink and joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
