Chicago's Granite Repair and Polishing Specialists

Chipped sink edges, cracked strips, open seams and countertops that have lost their shine don’t mean you need new granite. Prestige Grout, Marble & Granite has been repairing and polishing granite in Chicago homes and condos for over 18 years, from high-rise condos in Streeterville, River North and the Gold Coast to vintage homes in Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Old Town, the West Loop and Wicker Park.

We repair kitchen countertops, islands, vanities, bar tops, showers and floors, then polish and seal them so they look great and hold up to everyday life, for a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Every job starts with a free estimate. Text us a few photos of your granite and we can usually tell you what it needs before we ever come out.

What We Fix on Granite

Repairs are filled with specialty resins and color-matched powders, then shaped and polished:
  • Chips and broken corners: filled, shaped and polished to blend in with the stone.
  • Chipped sink edges: one of the most common granite repairs we do.
  • Cracks: filled and bonded so they stop spreading.
  • Cracked strips in front of the sink: we remove the cracked pieces and any rusted reinforcing rod, re-bond them with a specialty adhesive, then fill, grind, polish and seal.
  • Open or uneven seams: refilled and leveled.
  • Broken countertops: bonded back together, filled and polished.
  • Backsplash caulk: old caulk removed and recaulked.

Granite Polishing and Sealing

For granite that is dull, hazy or scratched

Granite loses its shine from years of cleaners, worn sealers and everyday use. We refinish dull areas or polish the whole surface with specialty diamonds and polishing paste, bringing back a deep, even shine on countertops, islands, vanities, showers and floors.

Then we seal it to help keep oils, wine and coffee from soaking in. For the best protection, ask about the MORE Infinity Lifetime Stain Warranty.

Quartz and Corian Too

We repair quartz and Corian countertops the same way we repair granite: chips, cracks, sink edges and seams. For scratches and dull spots on quartz and Corian, we usually refinish the entire surface with fine specialty sandpaper and pads so the finish is even from end to end.

Recent Project: Broken Granite Island Repair in Chicago, IL

Granite island countertop broken in two before and after repair and polishing in Chicago, IL by Prestige Grout

This Chicago kitchen island had a granite top that broke all the way through, leaving the countertop in two pieces. The homeowner was facing a full replacement and the challenge of matching the rest of the kitchen.

Our technician lined the pieces back up, bonded them together with a specialty adhesive and clamped them in place. Then we filled the break, ground it flush and polished the entire area so the top is one solid, smooth surface again, with no tear-out and no new slab.

Can a broken granite countertop be fixed?

In many cases, yes. If the pieces are intact, we can bond them back together, fill the break and polish it smooth. It costs a fraction of replacing the top and matching new granite.

Why do granite countertops crack?

Most cracks start at weak points like the narrow strip in front of a sink, around cutouts, or on overhangs that get leaned or sat on. Catching a crack early keeps it from spreading.
