& Repairs
Let’s begin with the process of explaining the steps to repairing your countertops. Firstly, it is important to understand whether the crack you are observing is an actual crack or a fissure, for chips you can skip to the repair section of this post. This information is relevant when determining which type of materials are required to get the job done right.
Fissures are naturally occurring in many types of stone. Defined by the American Geological Institute as an “extensive Crack, break, or fracture in the rock..”, the term is used in the stone industry to describe a visible separation along the crystalline boundaries naturally occurring in the stone. More often than not a fissure does not go through the entire depth of the stone, although in some cases it can.
Cracks on the other hand result from stresses from handling, fabrication, transport, and/or installation. While a crack by definition does not necessarily go through the entire depth of the stone, this is more commonly seen than a fissure going through the entire depth of the stone.
