A small chip can make an otherwise beautiful stone surface look damaged and neglected. Detelio provides specialist stone chip repairs throughout Melbourne, repairing localised damage to benchtops, edges and other suitable stone surfaces while preserving as much of the original material as possible.
Ross provides clear expectations from the outset about what can realistically be achieved. Stone repairs can significantly improve damaged areas, but they may not always become completely invisible. Detelio does not simply paint over stone to disguise repairs, ensuring clients understand the likely result before work begins.
Chips commonly occur around exposed edges and high-use areas where stone is vulnerable to accidental impacts. The right repair depends on the material, location, size and nature of the damage, so every enquiry is assessed individually before the most appropriate approach is recommended.
Detelio carries out specialist chip repairs for residential and commercial clients throughout Melbourne, Geelong and the Mornington Peninsula, with much of the work completed onsite without removing the existing stone.

Kitchen and bathroom benchtops can develop chips through impacts from cookware, appliances and everyday use. Our Stone Benchtop Chip Repairs focus on carefully rebuilding and refinishing the damaged area while retaining the existing benchtop wherever practical.

Exposed stone edges and corners are particularly susceptible to impact damage. Our Stone Edge Chip Repairs address these localised areas using techniques selected according to the material, profile and extent of the damage.

Different stone materials require different repair techniques. We assess chipped Marble & Natural Stone individually, taking the material's colour, pattern, finish and location into consideration when determining the most suitable repair approach.
Stone chip repairs are often straightforward to assess from good photographs. Detelio asks clients to send clear images with their enquiry, and Ross can often provide a quote on the spot based on the photos supplied. Contact us today with pictures of the damaged area to find out what can be done.

Suitable marble surfaces can often be repaired where localised chipping has occurred. Marble's natural colour and veining are considered when assessing the likely appearance of the completed repair.
Even relatively small chips can be visually distracting, particularly on prominent benchtops and edges. Ross can assess photos of the damage and advise whether professional repair is worthwhile.
Provide clear, well-lit photographs showing the chip close up as well as wider images showing its position on the surface. This gives Detelio useful context when assessing the damage and preparing a quote.
