Seam or no seam quartz countertop
Comments (8)Sorry, Melissa, I can't make any sense out of what you're describing. Perhaps you could draw something, take a picture of the drawing and post it? The more rounded the edge, the less likely the chipping....See MoreIs this a bad quartz countertop seam and sink installation??
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 MoreAnother seam placement question for Compac Quartz counter top
Comments (2)i wouldn't be too worried about seam strength, frankly. if it's in the corner, the cabinet edges will help support it, and similar would be true for the sink. i would think about what you would find noticable/irritating. myself, i'd want the seam in the corner. i'd find it less noticable there....See Moreany advice on quartz seam
Comments (8)I agree, it doesn't look good and what a shame to have a seam and such a small piece attached. We can't see the rest of the kitchen but it seems likely there may have been a better location for the seam. As for the width of the seam, I'd agree on that too - it looks a little sloppy. Start by asking the company to come back and lay out a plan to make it better. Is there any more of your slab left that they might be able to cut a new piece and make a better seam?...See Moreauntthelma
