How to fix chip in granite countertop

I have a little chip at the edge of my granite countertop near the sink edge. The company said they don't sell anything to fix it. Sending someone out would be expensive. I see there are several mentioned on Youtube. Does anyone have any experience with any that work?

Re: How to fix chip in granite countertop

I had the same issue. I contacted the company that installed my countertops and they had two options - one was to send a tech out to repair it for about $150 and and other option was for me to purchase a kit (with a clear epoxy) to fix it myself. I chose to have the tech repair it. I don't know if QVC allows names of companies, but check with Precision Countertops - just do an online search. Mine was just a small chip, but enough to irritate me! Good luck!

I am pretty handy, for an expensive counter top, I would call in the experts.

Re: How to fix chip in granite countertop

  I have an onyx dining room table. A few years ago it chipped. I was heartbroken.I called a local furniture store & they gave me the name of a countertop maker.I called & explained my situation. They sent somebody to fix it .It cost around $125. 
  It was well worth it. I can't even tell it had been chipped.

I used a granite chip fix product that I found at Lowe's to fix a chip I had on my kitchen counter. It was chipped when the fridge was put in. It's a 2 step product and then I found a paint that matched very close. It's still good after several years but I've touched up the paint. I do a lot of repairs myself.

I had a chip in my granite near the backsplash. When I had our installers come out to fix it, it looks like they used a wad of gum. It looks horrible. I'm just grateful that its in the back and not noticable. Good luck.

If it's in a very noticeable spot I think this is one of those situations when you "call the guy."

How common is this?  I always regretted putting in Formica 13 years ago and was thinking about replacing it with granite..  The bathroom is some sort of composite stone, but it seems to show scratches.

The counter top is the work center of your counter and will receive other dings and keep on performing.  Have it professionally repaired.
