Jan 07, 2022
1. In the countertop installation, try to avoid large-scale cutting and drilling of quartz stone at the construction site. On the one hand, it is to prevent the cutting dust from polluting the construction site, and on the other hand, it is to prevent errors caused by inaccurate cutting.
2. When designing the opening position of the stove, the opening position of the countertop should be greater than or equal to 8 cm from the edge of the countertop to prevent the countertop from cracking. When opening the stovetop, first use a cutting machine or a jig saw to make the hole. Then use a gong machine or a hand grinder to polish the edges to achieve a smooth effect. The radius of the four corners is basically uniform. Because the jig saw and cutting machine open holes, there are serration marks on the periphery of the cut holes, which can easily cause cracks. Cracks in the hole.
3. Quartz stone is generally installed by splicing. When choosing the splicing position, try to avoid the corners and furnace mouths. Since quartz stone has the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction, if it is near the fire or corner, it may crack.
4. When the quartz countertop is installed, the place where the countertop connects with the sink will be marked with transparent glass glue. Before gluing, check whether the outer packaging of the glass glue is marked with anti-mold function. After gluing, workers must be urged to clean up the excess glue in time.
5. Due to the high hardness and high density of quartz stone countertops, the processing technology requirements are high. Therefore, for the installation of quartz stone countertops, you should contact a professional quartz stone installer and use professional tools to install it. You must not install it blindly by yourself to avoid unnecessary trouble.
