About our worktop repair in Scarwell
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We’re often asked to fix a heat mark or burn and cuts and scratches in the surface, across quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Scarwell questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Do you work in Scarwell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Scarwell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scarwell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Clean spills straight away
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
