Onyx Repair & Restoration

Onyx is a stunning natural stone, celebrated for its dramatic coloration, intricate banding, and luminous translucence. Onyx can be a "show-stopping" option for home interiors. Formed from layers of chalcedony, calcite, and other minerals deposited by spring water, onyx is distinguished by its parallel bands of varied hues: black, amber, green, honey, and white. Each slab is a unique visual masterpiece.​

​

Its striking colors are created by trace amounts of iron, copper, or magnesium that give onyx everything from delicate pastels to deep, vibrant tones. This translucency enables onyx slabs to be backlit, a popular choice for homeowners that enhances the stone's vivid veining and creates an unforgettable focal point in any room.​

Onyx in the Home

 

Onyx is often used as a statement piece for countertops, bar tops, wall panels, fireplaces, bathroom vanities, and accent walls. Its ability to transmit light makes it ideal for decorative installations and feature lighting, elevating both contemporary and classic design schemes.​

​

Durability & Maintenance

 

While onyx captivates with its beauty, it is softer and more brittle than granite or quartzite. This requires careful handling. It can scratch, chip, or etch when exposed to acidic substances, so pH-neutral cleaners and non-abrasive cloths are essential for preserving its polish. Many onyx countertops are professionally installed with a fiberglass or resin backing for added strength. Routine resealing is necessary to protect the stone from staining and moisture ingress.​
