When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Scotton
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Scotton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
