Hi,

I just had a new granite counter top installed in a new bathroom. We
don't have much experience with this kind of thing and noticed this on
the back splash (see image). The line you can observe is not stone,
but something softer (some kind of epoxy).

Is this kind of thing acceptable? I know natural stone isn't perfect,
but in my opinion this looks bad.

How can they fix something like this? Is it possible to remove the
backsplash or will they have to replace the whole counter top?

I haven't been able to connect with the stone person yet, but should I
expect push back?

Thanks,
PB2

You mean the verticle brown patch that doesnt match in color, not the
horizontal seam? He could have turned it over and polished the other
side, they didnt even match the area fixed. At least get a discount. I
have that granite maybe 40 ft of it and I may or may not notice it but
yours is the Bath Sink, but now you notice that area because you are
fixed on it, that granite has alot going on in it. A photo is one
thing, if someone else just came to look would they notice it without
being told? I mean yes its a defect, but did you pay the lowest price
or get pitched a perfect job. Its hard to realy say without being
there but at least get a discount and tell them to reverse the piece.
I guess its how much it bothers you with your lighting etc, and a Bath
Sink is an important area you see many times a day unlike my counters
with parts that are hidden under kitchen apliances and junk, id
probably be ****ed.
