Will my kitchen cabinetry need reinforcing to support a Concrete Benchtop?
The majority of the Kitchens we have installed Concrete Benchtops on to, have not required additional reinforcing. Concrete Benchtops only weigh approximately 15% more than granite, however if you are installing a new Kitchen, you can always ask your Cabinetmaker if they would prefer to add additional reinforcing.
Will there be imperfections with a Concrete Benchtop?
As Concrete is a natural product, each Concrete Benchtop will dry differently depending on the environment it is placed in, i.e. the temperature variation of the area it is placed in. As with all concrete, Concrete Benchtops can develop hairline cracks. If the concrete does crack, it is generally non-structural and caused by the natural shrinkage of the concrete. Hairline cracks or minor imperfections help to give that industrial concrete look and add to the character of the benchtop.
Can I put hot pots and pans on a Concrete Benchtop?
A Concrete Benchtop could most certainly handle hot pots and pans, however the heat could damage the sealer on top of the benchtop, therefore we recommend you do not place hot pots and pans directly onto your Concrete Benchtop if it is sealed.
How often do I need to reseal a Concrete Benchtop?
