Marble or Granite Chips Repair Service

Get Rid of Marble Chips Once and For All.

Marble is a quite soft and brittle material and it does not require significant force to deform it. Most damages can be in the form of cracks, chips, stains, and etches, which all make the marble seem out of place.

Chipping can easily happen on the edges of countertops or tables when taking kitchenware out from the dishwasher and accidentally hitting the edge, also it can occur during stone fabrication and installation. Chipping more often happens on soft kinds of stone such as marble, onyx, or limestone, than on granite.

We are providing the service to repair marble chips, holes, and small surface cracks by filling them with knife-grade epoxy. Also, we are providing color matching to the existing color and pattern by mixing epoxy with several color pigments.

How to Fix Chip with Epoxy

To fix a marble chip you should color the epoxy to match it with the existing stone. Then with the help of a razor blade gently pull out the glue onto the chip holding the blade in the perpendicular direction taking care that no bubbles are formed and the glue is not out of the hole.

Once the epoxy is placed in the gap, you can use a torch or heat gun to accelerate the process of hardening but it is not required since epoxy curing time is usually fast. If you need more glue then you can apply it but make sure it has not yet started hardening.

Finally, sand out excess epoxy with sandpaper starting at 100 grit and ending up with 1000 and higher grit.
