With their unique industrial charm, polished concrete worktops reshape contemporary kitchens across the UK. Here's what you need to know about their advantages and considerations:
ADVANTAGES:Unrivalled Customisation: With an array of colours, finishes, and the ability to embed objects for an intriguing texture, polished concrete is your canvas. Unleash your creativity.
Durability & Heat Resistance: Known for their robustness, these worktops resist heat and stand the test of time with proper maintenance.
Eco-friendly: When sourced locally and created using environmentally conscious methods, polished concrete worktops contribute positively to sustainability.
Design Flexibility: These worktops can be moulded to any size or shape, offering unparalleled freedom in kitchen design.
CONSIDERATIONS: Sealing & Maintenance: Naturally porous, polished concrete worktops need regular sealing to prevent stains and periodic waxing to maintain their finish.
Weight: As a heavy material, ensure your kitchen cabinets and flooring are structurally sound to support a concrete worktop.
Touch & Feel: Similar to stone, concrete may feel cold to the touch, which may not appeal to everyone.
Lead Time: While polished concrete worktops are worth the wait, the bespoke nature of these worktops means they might have a longer lead time than off-the-shelf solutions. Custom crafting your worktop to perfection may require patience, but rest assured, the result is well worth the wait.
Balancing these factors with your budget, style, and specific needs is crucial. But remember the end result – a stunning, hard-wearing kitchen surface that exudes style – is well worth it.
