FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the worktop?

The worktop measures 3000mm in length and 600mm in width.

Is this worktop suitable for a busy family kitchen?

Yes, it is designed for durability and ease of cleaning, making it suitable for busy family environments, provided standard care instructions are followed.

Can I place hot pans directly on the surface?

No, it is recommended to use trivets or pan stands to protect the laminate surface from high heat, as it is not as heat-resistant as natural stone.

How do I cut this worktop to size?

Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw. Ensure any cut edges are sealed with a suitable worktop sealant to prevent moisture damage.

What is the edge profile?

The worktop features a square edge, providing a clean and modern line.

How should I clean the Brasilia Matt finish?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

What is the main advantage over real stone?

The primary advantage is the significantly lower cost and easier maintenance compared to natural stone countertops.

Troubleshooting

Worktop has a minor scratch.

For very light scratches, a non-abrasive laminate cleaner or polish may help. Deeper scratches may be difficult to repair without professional intervention.

Joints appear uneven.

Ensure the worktop edges are perfectly aligned during installation and that sufficient adhesive and connectors are used. Re-sealing may be necessary.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Try a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied, followed by thorough rinsing.

Edging appears chipped.

Minor chips can sometimes be filled with a color-matched laminate repair kit. Ensure all cut edges were sealed during installation.
