It may need to be replaced because if they attempt to take the granite off it may crack. This might cost me about $3600.00. The prices are increasing at The Villages and the quality of the homes are going down. Boo on the The Villages for not expecting quality work from their contractors.

We used Exquisite Designs as well, after Uptown Girl graciously invited us to see her granite. We are so pleased. He did a beautiful job and helped us with granite selection so that there are no seams at all.
I would say that you will be happier in the long run if you just let him replace your granite. You will forget about the cost and be so happy with your countertops instead of staring at and hating that seam for as long as you live in your house.
