What granite countertop repair covers
- Chip repair. Chips at the edge, sink, or cooktop are filled with a color matched, stone grade epoxy, then shaped and polished so the repair disappears into the pattern.
- Crack repair. Cracks are stabilized, filled, and reinforced. On a through crack near a cooktop or sink cutout we address the cause so it does not reopen.
- Seam repair. Open or lifting seams between slabs are cleaned out, re bonded, and refinished so the joint sits flat and tight again.
- Burns and scorch marks. Heat and hard water marks are honed and polished out of the surface.
- Dull spots and etching. Cleaner damage and wear are refinished back to the original polish.
- Resealing. After repair we seal the granite with an impregnating sealer so it resists stains going forward.
Chip and crack repair, step by step
Granite is hard, so most damage is at the vulnerable points: the thin edge of a sink cutout, the corner by the range, and the front edge where things get dropped. We clean the damage, fill it with a pigmented epoxy blended to the color and movement of your slab, cure it, then grind and polish it flush. Done correctly, the repair is difficult to find even up close. A cracked granite countertop can almost always be repaired in place, which saves the cost and disruption of tearing out and replacing the slab.
Repair or replace?
Repair is the right answer far more often than a countertop company selling new slabs will tell you. Chips, cracks, seams, burns, and dull spots are all repairable. Replacement only makes sense when a slab is broken into pieces or when you want a different stone. Because we repair rather than sell slabs, our advice is based on the stone in front of us, not on moving inventory. For pricing, see the 2026 DC area cost index and our countertop restoration page.
Why a professional repair lasts
A hardware store epoxy stick is clear and flat, so it reads as a shiny patch against natural stone that has color and depth. A professional repair is pigmented to match, shaped to the surface, and polished to the same finish as the rest of the counter. That is the difference between hiding the damage and drawing attention to it. It is craftsmanship, and it is why our repairs hold and disappear.
