I have recently installed granite countertops in my new kitchen. These were purchased from Home Depot which uses Innovative Stone. I have prided myself on taking good care on my stone but tonight, my husband found a dent measuring 1/4 inch on the top edge of my island. Needless to say we’re upset. I’m also worried that if I have damaged it, not knowing how, I can do it again. My daughter said that she always remembers a slight dent in the stone but I guess maybe something fell on that exact spot and made it biggger. We did find a small piece of the stone but it was smalller than the dent.

Is this possible? I thought granite was indestructible???

Please let me know if anything can be done.

Thank you
