Huge obvious seam in Quartz counter - Minuet
Comments (23)I have a seam in my River White granite. My input was sought on seam placement and fabricator cut the slab so that the most "line-y" part of the slab would have a seam running through it, parallel. So that part went well. I was disappointed that the installer didn't take it to the next level though. I realize it's simplest to slap a single colour in. The installer gave me the choice of a lighter and darker epoxy. But he wouldn't apply the two epoxy colours in a dotted pattern so that the line of the seam didn't stand out as much. That would have made it much less visible. It's a visual principle that if you break up a line with a pattern it stands out a lot less. I will probably DIY some acrylic lighter colour at some point to improve this situation. I am positive that I can make the seam less visible this way. Some companies have actually made a specialty of improving seams: FWIW, elphaba, I don't think your seam is too bad....See MoreLondon Fog Quartz Counter top Seam

Comments (30)It's better if you find a smaller fabricator with proper licenses and insurance. Don't go with big box stores but also make sure not to do business with contractors or freelancer shops who cut quartz in their driveway, yard or a garage. Check the reviews, ask to see some of the work they already did, and that should be enough to make you certain that you're doing the job with the real professionals. And now you can say that you can be certain how a seam should not look like....See MoreHelp....crack in new granite counter top and bad seam
Comments (33)Joe...also....the corbels under the granite were from previous countertop. There are 2 and the counter on the side with the crack does not meet it...they filled in gap with epoxy. I have a call in to the fabricator company...they also sell the slabs and installed. Am I being unreasonable about the crack? I can see it and feel it. I spent a lot of money for these tops and am also using as full height backsplash. They are supposed to install tomorrow which obviously will not happen until they come out and we discuss the counter concerns....See Moremark_rachel
