Worktop repair at your home in Kirk Yetholm
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on quartz, laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are a chipped quartz edge and burns from hot pans.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Kirk Yetholm
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?

Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

When to call us in Kirk Yetholm
Most worktop damage takes a second: 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.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A heat mark or burn
- A chipped edge
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Cuts and scratches in the surface

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Kirk Yetholm
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirk Yetholm use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kirk Yetholm. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing typically 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 quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
