"...just found a crack in back of the sink that runs across the top and I can see and feel it on top and underneath."

I don't need to see a picture to diagnose a catastrophic reinforcement rod failure. Wrong rod, wrong depth, wrong adhesive. Sink replacement is the only fix. Be glad it blew early please.

I justvtook

Sorry. I just took pictures going

Sorry having technical difficulty.

This

It runs across the top and underneath.

This Is the top of the countertop where the crack is The next picture is underneath the counter which happens to be the overhang so I'm able to access it you can feel it all across the top on both edges and underneath

Here are a couple of pictures of the seam. This is a separate issue from the crack

It's very obvious. Right?

For clarification the Kitchen Sink is not cracked the countertop is and should I see the seam to the counter this blatantly

I think Joe is saying the sink was not installed properly which caused the crack.

Sounds like the overhang is not supported properly and it's sagging down.

Maybe others can weigh in on that seam, it seems (ha) normal to me.

I can't comment on the crack, but i think the seam looks fine. This site is notorious for being unreasonable with their seam demands. Contractors must hate GW.

The seam isn't bad.

Take the crack pictures further back please.

This is an angled picture so you can see the indent. It Goes from the edge of the sing all the way to the edge of the counter and you can see it underneath

Laura-

You've got a lot of action and color variegation in your countertop, and they matched the seam to the predominant background color. What else do you expect could have been done with the seam given all of those contrasting color spots at the intersection?

I didnt expect to see it. The company where i bought the stone and they installed also told me I wouldnt see it. It is right in the middle of the most used part of

The kitchen.

We stressed we didn't want seam if possible. she assured us if the seam was needed we would never notice it. 5 guests at different times mentioned the seam withoutme asking their

Kudzu9. The numbered pictures are a crack. The

There are only 2 pictures of the seam the rest are the

It appears they've reinforced the overhang with imbedded rods and the crack runs perpendicular to the rods. If that's the case, the crack isn't going to get any worse. I'd look underneath to see if a sink clip lines up with the crack.

There are no sink clips. It appears wood was added to the left and right sides of the cabinet and then they put silicone between the sink and countertop to keep water from getting out of sink

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.

Addressing only the seam, it sounds like maybe it is the seam placement (right in the middle) that is bothering you, more so than seam quality per se. Is the seam where it was supposed to be based on the templating? If you do end up needing it all replaced, there's a chance to get better seam placement, so tiny silver lining?
