If you live in Lenzie, where Lenzie Moss was once used for peat extraction, and a chipped worktop edge is catching your eye every time you enter the kitchen, a localised cosmetic repair may be worth assessing. The important starting point is what lies beneath the decorative finish—not simply how large the missing piece looks.

Please include clear images of the damage, your name and the property postcode. A close-up, a wider photo and a short description help us assess the repair.
Is it the surface, the edge strip or the core?
Laminate worktops have a decorative surface over a supporting core. A small impact may mark the face, remove material from an edge or expose the core beneath. Send a close-up of the damaged edge and a wider view showing its position on the worktop. If you know the brand or finish, include it; there is no need to guess the material.
Explain whether the edge is straight, rounded or beside a joint. A photograph from a second angle can show the profile without anyone touching a sharp damaged area. The same-looking chip can need a different assessment depending on that profile and the surrounding condition.
Why swelling changes the conversation
A local chip is different from a raised, swollen or separating section. Tell us if the area has changed shape, feels loose in ordinary use or has been exposed to a known leak. Cosmetic work does not resolve water ingress, loose joints or a failing core. Those conditions may need attention before an appearance repair is considered, and some worktops will not be suitable.
Do not remove the edge strip, sand the surface or apply a filler to demonstrate the damage. Mention any previous repair so its effect on the assessment can be considered.
What finish should you expect?
A repair aims to make suitable local damage less noticeable. Printed grain, speckled patterns and light reflecting along an edge can affect the result. Colour, texture and sheen may not match perfectly, and an invisible finish cannot be promised. Local work will not renew the entire worktop or remove unrelated wear.
A useful Lenzie enquiry checklist
- Close-up and wider photographs, with no colour filters.
- An approximate chip size and a view of the edge profile.
- Known moisture, movement or previous filling.
- Your Lenzie postcode and whether you own the property or have permission for work.

Can you assess a chip beside a sink cut-out?
Send a view showing the cut-out and surrounding material. Position matters, and any signs of leakage, movement or wider damage need to be described. A cosmetic repair does not establish the condition of hidden material.
Does the repair carry a guarantee?
Repairs carry a 12-month guarantee, excluding repairs to cracks in baths and shower trays. Discuss the proposed work and finish limitations before arranging a visit.
