I hope someone can help out. I have a "granite" countertop (unsure of actual stone) that appears either be black galaxy or something like it. In opening up a wine bottle, the bottle slipped as I was pulling the cork and slammed into the counter, shattering the bottle, and unfortunately leaving a small chip / ding in the countertop. It's basically a very small divot whose contents appear crushed. Some questions and a picture:
This is a pretty minor chip as you can tell in the picture. Ideally, I would like to get a professional to fix it however, I don't want to spend over $100 on something so minor. Can I safely assume it will cost me more than that to have a professional fix this? If this can be fixed adequately for under that cost, what is the best way to find a reputable contractor to do the work?
The actual chip doesn't bother me so much as the discoloration compared to the rest of the stone. As you can see the chip is basically white against a black / grey backdrop. Is there an inexpensive way to color this section in to blend better either using a touch-up marker or a home repair chip kit? If so, any suggestions on particular brands or outlets that sell these?
Thanks so much in advance!,
Mike
