Damaged worktop?

I have burn marks on my laminate worktop also a small burn hole - can it be repaired?

the simple answer is: it would be probably easier to change the worktop.
if you go to your local hardware shop you should be able to buy some edging tape the same colour/style as your worktop. ( its the tape they use to put an edge on your worktop at the edge )
you would then need to cut a piece of that the same size, shape and colour layout as that of the worktop.
cut a piece out of the worktop that is the samesize as the piece of edging tape you have pre-cut and glue that in and seal.
to be honest it would be probably easier and look nicer to change the worktop.
a length of worktop isnt going to be that expensive, just going to need a good quality joiner to fit it.
