Granite Worktops: The Best Investment in Your Home? Well....if you think
about it! Granite Worktops offer a high degree of durability when compared to
other countertops and kitchen worktops available on the market today. Granite
is also highly resistant to heat, scratches, spills, stains, and heat damage.
Granite is a heavy,
hard stone that is not easily cut, chipped, or damaged. Granite (also known as
igneous limestone) work tops are typically extremely heavy, so it can sometimes
be hard to lift even with heavy machinery. You must always remove cabinet doors
and any other potentially damaged items that could become damaged during the
installation of new granite worktops. In addition, on some very large installations,
particularly when granite worktops are especially large and/or bulky (e.g.
large island of granite worktops), it might be necessary to organize additional
personnel to help in moving and lifting the large granite worktops.
Granite worktops are used most extensively in kitchens (as well as bathrooms and showers in commercial kitchens). Granite is also very long lasting, durable, and resilient, making it the ultimate choice for kitchen worktops and related applications. Granite worktops and related installations have the added benefit of adding additional value to your home, helping to increase its market value when you decide to sell.
Before deciding to
install granite worktops or related installations, it is important to consider all
of your options. If you're having difficulty in finding suitable granite worktops
or finding custom products for your kitchen, try searching online for
'tear-drop' trials. These are a sample of granite worktops and other
stone products that have been tried and tested by actual customers. Some
retailers will offer free trials on selected items, although many will require
a small deposit to secure your trial pack and ensure that you receive the
product for the period specified.
After trying out a
range of samples and deciding which products you'd like, it's time to start
planning your Granite worktop installation project. Granite worktop
installation professionals will be able to advise you on everything from where
to have your new worktops installed to whether you should use mastic, glue,
screws, or stone adhesive to hold your new worktops in place. Granite
installation professionals will also be able to provide you with information
about how to care for your new worktop surfaces, whether you should use granite
sealant to protect your stone surface, and if you need to use a specialised
sealant to prevent your stone surface from cracking. The first priority once
your new worktop is installed is making sure that it is installed correctly.
It is important to make sure that your Granite worktop installation team are aware of the importance of correct Granite worktop installation. It can be a great deal of fun to have your own Granite worktop designs and styles in your home, but it is very important that the team who apply your Granite worktops and materials to understand how important it is to adhere to all of the Granite Supplier's instructions for installation. Granite worktop installation teams will usually recommend that you complete your Granite installation work in one day. This can be increased to two or three days, depending on the size of the worktop and the quantity of work involved. This is because if you were to try and install your stone worktop overnight, it could damage the surface underneath.
When installing
granite worktops or any other material for that matter, it is vitally important
to ensure that all nails used are fully attached. You should also ensure that
no screws or nails were used that are broken, damaged, or broken in some way.
This would defeat the purpose of having a granite worktop and possibly hinder
the durability of the surface.
Some Granite Suppliers
will give you the option of choosing whether your Granite Worktops should be
connected to a sink or not. It is worth considering if you have an older child
or relative that could potentially get their hands on the sink and cause
considerable harm. With some basic precautions such as securing your Granite
worktop to your existing drainage system, and fitting a base unit to secure
your sink, it really is very easy to install your own Granite worktop. The good
thing about this type of installation is that it usually only takes around an
hour or so to complete, and you can fit it yourself.
