Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean spills immediately
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What affects the price in Carlton Scroop
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate that has blown or swollen

Carlton Scroop: your questions answered
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Common problems we fix in Carlton Scroop
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips near the sink
- Knife marks
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips on edges and corners
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
