Materials We Repair
Every stone behaves differently — hardness, porosity, and pattern all affect what a repair can achieve. Choose your material below for specifics on common damage, what’s repairable, and care guidance.
Marble
natural stone
Marble is a natural metamorphic stone prized for its veining and soft, luminous finish. That same softness — it sits low on the hardness scale compared to granite or quartz — is what makes it comfortable to work with and unfortunately easier to chip, scratch, or etch.

engineered stone
Quartz countertops are engineered from crushed quartz crystal bound with resin, giving a hard, non-porous, consistently patterned surface. It resists staining and scratching well but can chip on edges and corners, and can crack under impact or thermal stress.
Learn more →Granite
natural stone
Granite is a hard, natural igneous stone with a distinctive speckled or crystalline pattern. It's one of the most durable countertop materials, but it can still chip at edges and corners, develop hairline cracks, and lose its shine over years of use.
Learn more →Quartzite
natural stone
Quartzite is a natural metamorphic stone formed from sandstone, valued for being harder and more scratch-resistant than marble or granite while often carrying a similar soft, marble-like appearance. It's a popular choice for homeowners who like the marble look with more durability.
Learn more →Porcelain
engineered stone
Porcelain slab surfaces are manufactured from compressed clay and minerals fired at high temperatures, producing an extremely hard, non-porous surface that resists heat, UV, and staining. Its thinness (often 6–12mm) makes edge chipping the most common issue.

engineered stone
Engineered stone is a broad category covering manufactured surfaces such as quartz and porcelain slabs, made from natural minerals bound with resin or fired under heat. Consistency in colour and pattern is one of its main advantages over natural stone.

natural stone
Natural stone covers quarried materials like marble, granite, quartzite, limestone, and travertine — each formed differently and carrying its own hardness, porosity, and appearance. Because every slab is naturally unique, no two repairs are identical.
