Chipped Textured Stone Worktop Repaired in Chadderton

The damage

Jack has a grey stone kitchen worktop in Chadderton with a chip in the top surface. It's a textured finish with fine veining running through it, so the repair had to match the colour, the veins and the feel of the surface, not just fill the hole.

How I repaired it

I cleaned out the chip and filled it, then matched the grey base colour and painted the veining back in by hand so the lines carry straight through the repair. Because the worktop is textured, I also recreated the texture on top, so it feels the same as the rest of the worktop when you run your hand over it. The whole repair took about 2 hours.

The result

The chip is gone and the veining runs through as if it was never damaged. Up close, the texture matches the surrounding stone.

If your stone or quartz worktop has a chip, it can almost always be repaired in place, with no need to replace the top. I cover Chadderton, Oldham and the rest of Greater Manchester.
