Granite is a very hard material which makes it great for countertops and floors. However, regardless of its superior durability granite can still be damaged. The most common types of damage to granite are chips, scratches and cracks.

Granite chips usually happen most around the inner perimeter of the sink cut-out as a result of the edge being struck by a dish or along the front edge. These countertop chips can be repaired so that they are virtually invisible, even if you know right where the repair was done!

Scratches in your granite countertop will need to be honed and polished by a stone restoration professional. This is the only way to repair a scratch in a granite countertop. This is not a procedure for an amateur as the skills required for top polishing granite are extremely rare and the consequence for experimentation may be the need to replace a countertop. AXA Stone has the expertise necessary to polish and blend so that the repair area disappears entirely.

Cracks in granite countertops can also be repaired using a variety of methods so that the repair is indistinguishable from the rest of the stone. Call today and we will help you restore your stone to the condition it was in when it was installed, or better!
