Because of some poor stowage on my part, a 3-pin plug has escaped and fallen on to the work top of my Broadway and one of the pins has pierced the surface. It's only a small hole but it needs repair. Anybody have any suggestions as to the best way to rectify this problem and what material to use?

After several attempts at repairing a hole in our wxl worktop we used self adhesive floor tiles from B&A, cut to shape and finished off with silicone sealant, still looking good after 18 months.

You could get professionals in...

Or depending where the damage is, you could stick a tile over it for use as a trivet or a coaster or a chopping board.

I had a repair done on ours, basically they fill and then paint it, it stood up to about 3 years use before the paint started to wear. This was touched in again and a black glass chopping board now sits on the work top. Ours was damaged in an area that gets a lot of use.

This sort of damage happened to us recently and in my search for a repair I found a demonstration on youtube. Do a search for "caravan worktop repair". I haven't repaired ours yet but I have the area protected with a piece of sticky tape. Important to stop water getting in.

Try a small amount of car body filler
Sand it back with 2000 grit wet & dry and then touch up paint
