Worktop repair for Monk's Gate homes

Worktop repair in Monk's Gate without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Typical jobs include a chipped quartz edge and scratches and knife marks, in quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Monk's Gate

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink
  • Scratches and knife marks

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Monk's Gate

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you come to Monk's Gate?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Monk's Gate and the rest of West Sussex. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
