Q: How far should countertops hang over cabinets?

• <div><p>Countertops typically hang over base cabinets by 1.5 inches. This slight overhang protects cabinet faces from spills and provides a finished look. The overhang may extend 12 inches or more for kitchen islands or breakfast bars to allow for seating and comfortable eating.</p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest way to do countertops?

• <div><p>You can save some money on countertops by going the DIY route, though it can be risky. Laminate is attractive for cost-conscious homeowners, as it can mimic natural materials like granite and wood. It&rsquo;s also easy to install. Other inexpensive options include ceramic tile, porcelain tile, and butcher block. For serious savings, skip a full replacement and refinish the pre-existing countertop. </p></div>

Q: Do quartz countertops crack easily?

• <div><p>Quartz countertops are known for their durability, but they aren&rsquo;t indestructible. Quartz countertops can crack under extreme pressure, like when experiencing a heavy impact. The same can happen with regular exposure to high temperatures. Finally, improper installation makes the quartz more vulnerable. </p></div>

Q: How long do terrazzo countertops last?

• <div><p>Terrazzo is incredibly durable and resistant. It often lasts well over 75 years, as long as you take proper care of it.</p></div>

Q: Can you put a hot pan on a marble countertop?

• <div><p>It is not recommended to put a hot pan directly on a marble countertop. While marble is heat-resistant, it is not completely heat-proof, and extreme or prolonged exposure to high heat can cause discoloration, cracking, or chipping. Pans may also scratch or nick the surface. To protect your countertop and maintain its integrity, always use trivets or hot pads. Note that faux marble finishes do not resist heat and require protection from hot items at all times.</p></div>
