Plumber has damaged marble tiles

I did a polished cappuccino marble wetroom last week and popped round to collect my money this evening. The customer showed me a small surface discrepancy on one of the walls tiles, claiming that she thinks the plumber has damaged it with a hammer (or something similar).

I'm not convinced that the damage is from a hammer and it doesn't look too serious but there is definitely a small surface inclusion.

Can anyone steer me to a resin type repair kit that I can use to resolve the surface finish please?

Many thanks,

Daz
 
I have not used fillers before but they are available, i need some myself for a bit if travertine that the customer wants filled... aaarrrhhh.
Just in a doorway mind you.
My local shop does stock some of it.
 
Tenax / Granfix Epoxy Resin based repair kits are available for Travertine / Marble / Granite etc. and are pretty good and not too expensive!! Fill the hole and scrape off excess as level as you can, then sand with Wet & Dry, Polish and Reseal! You might want to Mask off around the damage by a few Mil, will make life easier but follow instructions of whatever kit you decide on and if you've never done it before then try it on a little scrap of tile if any's laying about still??!?
