How does the Carrara Mist countertop look like?

Here I will share some photos of when we were in the process of installing the countertops.

Here we are installing the kitchen countertops in the sink area.

This area is a "L" kitchen countertop where the sink is located. This enormous counter was installed with one seam due to the length of this L countertop piece and the slab size.

We can fabricate and install kitchen island countertops of any size, but it is necessary to take into consideration certain details such as:

* If is longer than the slab size, there will be a seam.

* If the countertops installation is on a first floor normally there are no problems concerning the size of the countertop or kitchen island, but if the installation is above the first floor then it is necessary to take into consideration the size of the elevator. If the installation of the countertop is on a floor other than the first one, it is necessary to measure the access of the corridor and the entrance door as well.

For example in this kitchen, we fabricated and installed Carrara Mist MSI quartz countertops. The size of this kitchen island was based on the size of the slab and the 3 inch Mitered edge on all 4 sides. When the slab shows veins, we recommended that those pieces of the edge come out of the same slab and with the sequence of the same cut so that the mitered edges are in harmony with the flow and movement of the veins.
