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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Worktop repair in Scottish Borders, done in place
Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are damage around the sink cut-out and a chipped quartz edge.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

We work right across the region, from Scottish Borders to Edinburgh (about 41 miles away).
We work across the TD12 postcode area and the streets around it. Whether you live on Montague Avenue and Crooks Avenue or a nearby road, we can come to you. We also travel to Coldstream (1 mile south-east), Wark (2 miles south), Birgham (2 miles south-west), Cornhill on Tweed (3 miles south-east) and Leitholm (3 miles north-west).

Landlord and trade work in Scottish Borders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northumberland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Dry around the sink and joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
When to call us in Scottish Borders
Edges and corners chip most often, often when something heavy catches the edge.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Chips near the sink
- Chipped corners
- Scorch marks from pans

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Scottish Borders get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
