FAQs for Scotter

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Common problems we fix in Scotter

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A chipped edge

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Scotter

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
