Solid Surface

PROJECT DETAILS

What makes solid surface special is not that it’s indestructible but that it is very workable and renewable surface with tight inconspicuous seams.  We offer a large selection of edge profiles and design options. With minor care Solid Surface tops will last a lifetime. Solid surface is consistent in coloration.  When you compare it to granite, solid surface delivers a much more “true to sample” product.  Because it is man made the colors and particulates can be controlled by the manufacture, thus assuring you will get what you picked.  When it comes to seams solid surface sheets are actually fused together with a chemical process that bonds the sheets together. This results in a nice tight seam that will be hard to see, remain closed, resist moisture, and not collect dirt in the future.  This process also allows us, the fabricator, to strategically place the seams and allows almost endless uses and applications. This also means that if you purchase a solid surface sink, the sink is also “fused” into the counter top form the underside so there is no seam, lip or edge to clean.  Solid Surface tops are non-porous.  They resist stains extremely well.  They meet FDA standards for food contact and fungal and bacterial resistance.  Solid surface is more heat resistant than plastic laminate tops and minor heat damage is generally removed by the home-owner.  Although we feel that they are not as important with solid surface attached cove back-splashes are also an option.  These tops do not require any sealer or top coats.  We can fabricate solid surface in hi-gloss, satin and matte finishes. The Matte finish, which is the most popular, especially for the kitchen, is easier to maintain by the home-owner.  You can visit the sight of our preferred brand here www.wilsonart.com/solid-surfaces.
