Cracked, chipped, scratched, or etched marble? We repair it all — countertops, floors, showers, and vanities. Invisible repairs by Manhattan's most experienced marble specialists since 2000.
What We Repair
From hairline cracks to deep chips, acid etching to stubborn stains — if it's marble, we can repair it. Here's what we fix every day across Manhattan.
Hairline and structural cracks in marble countertops, floors, and vanities. We use industrial epoxies and rodding reinforcement for permanent, invisible repairs.
Edge chips, corner breaks, and surface gouges. We color-match resin fills on-site, cure with UV light, and polish flush — completely invisible when finished.
Surface scratches from daily wear, dragged objects, and foot traffic. Progressive diamond honing removes scratches layer by layer, restoring a flawless surface.
Dull rings and spots from wine, lemon, vinegar, and acidic cleaners. We lightly hone the etched area with diamond pads, restoring uniform polish across the entire surface.
Deep-set stains from wine, oil, coffee, and rust. We apply poultice treatments that literally pull stains out of marble's pores — no bleaching, no damage.
Separated or cracked seams between marble slabs. We scrape out old adhesive, re-level with suction cups, and re-glue with fresh color-matched epoxy.
Our Process
Every repair follows a proven process refined over 24+ years and 50,000+ projects. Here's what to expect.
We come to your Manhattan property, inspect the damage, and explain exactly what needs to be done. You get a firm, written quote before any work begins — no surprises, no pressure.
We protect surrounding areas, shift furniture as needed, and set up dust containment. Your home stays clean — we use HEPA-filtered extraction systems throughout the repair.
Using industrial-grade compounds and diamond abrasives, we repair the damage: filling chips, stabilizing cracks, honing away scratches and etching, and extracting deep stains with poultice treatments.
We progressively polish the repaired area to match the surrounding surface — whether that's a high-gloss mirror finish or a matte honed look. The repair blends seamlessly.
We apply a penetrating sealer to protect the repaired area and surrounding stone from future staining and etching. Your marble is left clean, protected, and looking like new.
Common Questions
In most cases, cracked marble can be fully repaired. Hairline cracks are stabilized with penetrating injection epoxies that bond the stone at a molecular level. For deeper structural cracks — especially near sinks, cooktops, or high-stress areas — we reinforce from underneath using steel or fiberglass rods (called "rodding"). The repair surface is then sanded, polished, and sealed. The result is invisible and structurally sound. Replacement is only necessary if the marble is shattered, structurally compromised, or if you want to change stone types entirely. Call (212) 401-4036 to have your marble evaluated.
Most marble repairs in Manhattan are completed in 4-6 hours. Simple chip repairs can take as little as 1-2 hours. Countertop resurfacing (multiple etches/scratches) typically takes 4-6 hours. Full crack repair with rodding may require a full day. We work efficiently while maintaining quality — your home is fully usable the same day. Call (212) 401-4036 for a time estimate on your specific repair.
No. When done properly by an experienced professional, marble repairs are invisible. We color-match resins and epoxies to your specific stone's base color and veining pattern on-site. After curing, the repair is sanded flush and polished to match the surrounding finish. You won't be able to tell where the damage was. Manhattan Stone Care has been performing invisible marble repairs for over 24 years. Call (212) 401-4036.
An etch mark is physical damage — acid (from wine, lemon, vinegar, cleaners) dissolves the calcium in marble, leaving a dull, lighter-colored spot. It can't be cleaned away; the surface must be re-honed. A stain is absorption — liquid penetrates marble's pores, leaving discoloration below the surface. Stains require poultice extraction to pull the substance out. Manhattan Stone Care treats both. Call (212) 401-4036 to identify what you're dealing with.
