Advice: Check with your fabricator before chowing your material. Ours won’t do anything but a square edge for quartzite bc it’s too brittle. I really wanted a different edge but they already had transferred the slab when I learned this!

What are your go to budget conscious countertop materials? If you had to use a quartz, how would you choose one? Do you ever use leathered granite for kitchens? Thanks!

Hi Marianne, do you usually recommend 2 cm or 3 cm for kitchen and bathroom countertops?

Would you say the square/flat edge examples above are both 2cm?

Thanks for the reply. Do you leave it flat or do a mitered edge to make it look thicker?

We typically leave it flat. I do love an Ogee edge every now and then. Just depends on the vibe of the kitchen/bathroom

If I were to want to redo existing countertops that have a straight profile with feather cement, would I be able to give it a bullnose profile?
