Most damage is local and fixable. Repair is usually a fraction of the disruption of replacement.

Common Granite Damage and What Causes It

Chips form along edges and around sink cutouts where the stone is thinnest. Cracks often trace back to an unsupported overhang or a cabinet that settled. Seams open when adhesive ages or cabinets shift.

Stains come from oil, wine or rust soaking into stone that has lost its sealer. Each problem has its own fix, which is why we have separate pages for seams, chips, cracks and stains.

How a Repair Visit Works

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    The damage is examined to find the cause, not just the symptom.

  2. 02

    Clean and prep

    The area is cleaned and dried so resin or poultice can bond.

  3. 03

    Repair

    Color matched fillers are applied, cured and leveled flush with the surface.

  4. 04

    Polish and seal

    The repaired spot is polished to blend and sealed to protect it.

Small Habits That Prevent Future Damage

Use cutting boards, and keep heavy pots off unsupported overhangs. Avoid standing or kneeling on counters when changing light bulbs.

Wipe spills promptly, especially oils and acidic liquids, and test your sealer every so often with a few drops of water.
