Q. Hi, the very first time I set a cutting board on the 6" hang over on my new sun gold quartzite island top, I noticed a crack 3 hours later. The crack extends 10" into the island top and also straight through the separate 2 1/2" beveled edge. This one island top cost me 1800 dollars so I do not feel that I should have to settle for a repair which is all that the fabricator has offered me. The 2 cm quartzite ( natural stone) is cracked all the way through as is the mitered edge. The stone was reinforced by 2 pieces of plywood. When I use a level near the crack, the bubble is between the two lines but not completely centered . Do you think this is the issue or something else? The fabricator is trying to say we dropped something. That is not true and there is no dent or divot, just a straight crack going through both the top and mitered edge. Thank you so much!
