Our Countertop Edge Repair Services
We fix many types of countertop edges, working with different materials to restore their look and function. Our repair steps focus on precise matching and smooth finishes to ensure the edges blend well with the rest of your countertop.
Types Of Countertop Edges Repaired
We repair common edge styles like beveled, bullnose, ogee, and eased edges. Each edge type requires specific tools and techniques to restore its original shape and smoothness.
For example, bevel edges need angle sanding, while bullnose edges require careful rounding. We also handle custom edges, adjusting our method to match unique designs.
Our team can fix chips, cracks, and worn spots. We make sure repaired edges are durable and safe for daily use.
Materials We Specialize In
Our repair services focus on granite, quartz, and marble countertops. Each material has its own hardness and texture, so we use custom fillers and polishing compounds for each type.
Granite repairs involve matching the stone’s granular pattern. Quartz requires resin matching for the engineered surface. Marble needs gentle attention to avoid damage and to keep its natural veining clear.
We avoid using generic fillers. Our materials blend with your countertop to keep repairs invisible and strong.
Edge Repair Process
We start by cleaning the damaged area to remove dirt and oils. Next, we shape the damaged edge using diamond tools that match the original profile.
After shaping, we fill chips or cracks with color-matched resin. We then sand and polish the edge to a smooth, even surface.
Finally, we inspect the repair under good lighting to ensure the finish matches your countertop perfectly. Our process focuses on long-lasting results and neat appearance.
Custom Edge Profiles And Finishes
We focus on creating edge profiles and finishes that fit your style and match your existing counters. We offer several edge styles, each with unique shapes and benefits. Matching the finish you already have is important to keep your countertops looking consistent.
Popular Edge Styles
We repair and replicate many common edge styles. Some popular choices include:
- Eased Edge: A simple, slightly rounded edge that’s clean and modern.
- Beveled Edge: An angled cut that adds sharpness and detail.
- Ogee Edge: A decorative, curved shape that fits traditional designs.
- Bullnose Edge: A fully rounded edge for a soft, smooth look.
Each style affects how your countertop feels and looks. We help you pick an edge that works for your kitchen’s design and daily use.
Matching Existing Finishes
Matching the finish is key to making repairs invisible. We work with polished, honed, and leathered finishes.
- Polished: Shiny and reflective, common on granite and quartz.
- Honed: Matte and smooth without shine.
- Leathered: Slightly textured with a soft sheen.
We carefully match the texture and color to blend repairs with your current surface. This accuracy helps your countertop look like new again, without noticeable repair lines.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Countertop Edge Repair
What is the typical cost for repairing edges on granite countertops?
The cost usually depends on the size and extent of the damage. For minor chips and nicks, prices typically range from $75 to $250.
More severe damage, like large cracks or broken edges, can cost more due to the extra labor and materials needed.
How do I find reputable countertop edge repair services near Los Angeles?
Look for companies with strong local reviews and verified customer feedback. Licensing and insurance are also important signs of professionalism.
We recommend asking for before-and-after photos to confirm their skill level and the types of countertop materials they work with.
Can chips and cracks in quartz countertop edges be effectively repaired?
Yes, most chips and cracks in quartz edges can be fixed with specialized resins and color matching techniques.
However, repairs might be visible if the damage is very large or in a complex design area.
What are the differences between repairing modular and prefabricated countertop edges?
Modular edges are built and assembled onsite, so repairs often involve more customization. Prefabricated edges come as fixed pieces, and repair methods are more standardized.
Working with modular edges may require precise matching to existing seams, which can take additional time.
How long does a countertop edge repair service usually take to complete?
Most repairs take 2 to 4 hours depending on damage size and countertop material.
Smaller chips can sometimes be fixed within an hour, while extensive cracks may require more drying and curing time.
