§ 01What it is

Solid Surface, explained.

Solid surface (you may know the brand name Corian) is a poured acrylic-based composite. It looks like soft stone, feels like cool plastic, and has one property that nothing else has: the seams disappear.

We can join two slabs and sand the joint until you cannot find it with your finger. We can also integrate the sink directly into the counter so the bowl flows seamlessly from the surface. No silicone line, no grime trap.

Because it is repairable, a scratch or scuff is not the end of the counter. We sand and re-polish and the surface renews. Deep burns are the exception. Those usually leave a mark, and we will tell you straight if a piece can be saved. Even so, solid surface ages better than any other material we install.

§ 02The material

What you should know.

Look
Soft matte stone or a deliberate solid color. Wide range of subtle veining options.
Seams
Effectively invisible. We can fabricate U-shaped kitchens with no visible joints.
Sinks
Integrated bowls available. No silicone line where the counter meets the basin.
Repair
Scratches and dings sand out and the surface renews. Deep burns usually leave a mark.
Care
Wipe with soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals on the matte finishes.
