Enhance Your Kitchen Appeal With A Great Kitchen Benchtop
The type of benchtop right for your home is one of the most critical choices you will make while remodelling or installing a new kitchen. Because the quality of your benchtops can affect the performance and upkeep of your kitchen, you need to consider more than just appearances. Luckily, eBay has plenty to choose from.
Types of kitchen benchtops
The most common types of kitchen benchtops you’ll find are:
Stone/Quartz
The most durable stone tabletop is stone/quartz. It has the appearance of real stone and is stain resistant. Quartz surface is sanitary, low-maintenance, and non-porous.
Marble
Marble benchtops are popular for many high-end kitchens because of their status, elegance, and beauty. Marble is a metamorphic limestone mined from hillsides, with Italy producing many of the best slabs. As a natural stone, you will find that no two slabs of marble are similar.
Granite
In the market, granite is getting increasingly popular. It has the same aesthetic appeal as marble, but it is significantly more resistant to chipping, staining, and scratching. Granite costs can range from inexpensive to high, depending on its quality and appearance.
Concrete
Concrete is a heavy but fragile substance by nature, demanding additional reinforcing and supports to keep it from collapsing. The floor structure beneath must also be considered. People who want a more industrial vibe like concrete benchtops.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel benchtops are usually formed from thin stainless-steel sheets that have been bent to shape, welded together, and attached to a wood base. Because of their ease of cleaning, stain and chemical resistance, and general durability, stainless steel benchtops are popular in commercial kitchens.
Tile
Splashbacks and trim are popular uses for tile, although stronger tiles can be utilised as a tabletop. Tiles are often composed of ceramic, porcelain, glass, or natural stone and can feature raised, inset, or painted designs.
Hardwood
Hardwood benchtops are constructed from huge pieces of timber that have been glued together, sanded, and covered with a clear polyurethane finish. Timber is a warm and inviting material that complements the aesthetics of any home.
When it comes to kitchen benchtops, think about what will work well, your budget and ease of cleaning. You might like to match your bench to your kitchen cabinets or kitchen splashback. Don't compromise on quality. Get yourself the best kitchen benchtop on eBay today!
