Marble Top Repair

 

    

Above:  This Victorian Marble top was part of a set. To begin the repair, it's very important the marble is

on a perfectly flat surface. I use a larger piece of scrap marble for this. The top is then glued up using a

West System epoxy and allowed to cure for 2 days.

 

          

Above:  After the epoxy cured, the top was flipped over and a channel was routed. An Iron bar was epoxied

In place to add extra support.

 

Above:  Next, the crack is filled with custom colored filler, then sanded and polished when dry.
