As sintered stone is a tough stone, it is not recommended that you try to install this product yourself. Sintered stone needs to be cut very precisely using special tools and cannot be adjusted on site (you can’t plane a millimetre or two off if it doesn’t fit). Installation should also be undertaken by professionals as the finished stone pieces are heavy so its essential that the stone is properly supported. Any support materials (such as kitchen cabinets) should be checked by experienced stone worktop installers and floors should be professionally leveled to avoid the risk of cracking tiles or slabs when furniture is placed on top.
