Have an ugly granite edge seam? Disguise it with decorator tape!
How Bad Seams Happen

When using 2CM granite, fabricators add a bottom granite piece under the large countertop granite causing a seam between the two pieces. The seams can look almost invisible on granite that has a small pattern. The seams can look really bad when granite has a lot of visual movement. Fabricators have a tendency to not explain beforehand the issues that come with the eased edge seam in using 2CM granite that has visual movement in it.

 

Before your granite installation, it's best to talk to the fabricator so they can explain the edge seam options and issues. A mitered edge may help disguise the edge seams with granite that has a lot of visual movement in it. The mitered edge will cost more but may be worth the additional cost.
