Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put hot pans on your granite surface without worrying about cracking. This durable, heat-resistant stone can handle temperatures over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. However, it’s still good practice to use a pot trivet. There’s a risk that leaving a hot pot on a granite countertop for long periods can cause discoloration. Also, the pot can heat the granite, and an unsuspecting family member could burn their hand if they place it on the surface soon after the pot is removed.

If you want your butcher countertops to last the typical 20 years, you should seal them monthly. Most homeowners use either oil or polyurethane, which helps repel water from the porous material. Keep in mind that if your countertops are in a kitchen, you’ll want to use a food-grade sealant. Tung oil, mineral oil, and beeswax are all popular options.

The best tool for cutting countertops depends on the type of countertop material. For some softer materials, like laminate (Formica) and butcher block, you can use a hand saw, but most experts recommend power saws like circular saws, since these make the job go faster and easier and give more even results. However, power saws and circular saws are dangerous if used incorrectly, and they can be so powerful that they damage or chip laminate, stone, and other types of countertops. For this reason, you should take safety precautions and use best practices to prevent damage.

Any surface, including a waterfall countertop, can last decades based on a few things. First is the chosen material. For instance, quartz and granite are more durable and long-lasting than marble or concrete. Proper care also plays a key role. Regular cleaning and sealing, if required, will help any counter resist stains and damage over time.

A minimum overhang of 10 to 12 inches is generally recommended to provide enough legroom and space for individuals to comfortably sit at the island. This overhang allows for proper alignment of stools or chairs under the countertop, ensuring occupants can comfortably tuck their legs beneath the island while seated. 

However, for increased comfort and functionality, some homeowners may opt for a larger overhang, ranging from 15 to 18 inches, which provides ample space for leg movement and allows for a more relaxed dining experience.
