Kitchen countertops are a beautiful and useful part of your kitchen that are generally coveted by most. They are often heat resistant, scratch resistant, and come in a multitude of different colors, patterns, and sizes. Choosing the right kitchen countertop can be a difficult process, but learning how a countertop is actually installed can make the decision easier. Countertop replacement may seem like a difficult project, but it can be made easy with help from contractors.
First, the original countertop needs to be removed from the surface.
This means the sink and any appliances connected through the countertop are removed for an easier process. Sometimes the countertop may be screwed or glued down, but the example in the video was simply resting on the cabinetry. This makes removal quite easy.
Before the new one can be installed, it needs to be fabricated. Measurements are taken and sent to the countertop replacement company. They cut proper holes into the material and ensure corners are in the right places to fit in the existing space.
The new countertop is shipped to the home where it can be installed by the homeowner or contractor. This includes gluing the material down or screwing it in pace. To finish the project, the sink is put back in place, or a new sink is purchased for your new countertop.
