Different materials and brands have different guidelines. It is always best to get in touch and ask. As a general rule it is usually between 250mm and 300mm without any additional support. If there are cut outs in the piece in question then this may reduce further.

Our advice is never to put a hot pan or something directly out of the oven directly on to your worksurface. It is possible to damage or scorch the resins used to combine the quartz together. Granite worktops are more forgiving than quartz but again our advice is to avoid such contact.

Being a natural product all granite worktops need to be sealed. This will first be done at the installation process and will need to be resealed approximately every 12 months. Stone sealants can be purchased at most major DIY outlets. Granite worktops are easy to keep clean, a wipe over with warm soapy water are all they require, then buff the area dry with a clean cloth. Avoid using household chemical cleaners or detergents. For day to day cleaning use a natural Bees wax on the worktops to give added protection. No material is 100% stain proof. If any spills occur, make sure they are wiped up as soon as possible and not left to sit on the surface. Although extremely heat resistant the use of chopping boards and pan stands are recommended on all worktops as different materials have varying degrees of heat resistance. Avoid contact with substances like Bleach, Vinegar , Citric juices and other acidic products, Oil based products (take care when cooking), Acetone and Abrasive cleaners such as bathroom or oven cleaner (these may bring the polish off the worktops).

In the early days, wooden templates would be made and used to cut your worktops. This used to add time to the process and be wasteful of wood therefore we rely on a special 2D/3D laser measuring system which measures your requirements perfectly. The process usually takes about 60 minutes depending on the size and complexity of your layout.
