: If the granite was not cracked prior to or during installation, the problem is with the support structure and/or those who installed your counters/islands. Did they design the cabinets to support granite or lighter materials? Is there any overhang of granite off the edge of supporting structures? If there is overhang, does it extend past 10 inches? If it does, even supporting corbels may not suffice without stronger reinforcement.
Granite manufacturers would have a very restricted business if they where entirely honest about the limitations of supporting structures and most
98% so-called granites are actually hones and polished rock materials that are not quite as strong especially the crystalline and aggregate materials.
