It is generally recommended to install your kitchen floor before installing your waterfall gable stone benchtop. This is because the floor installation can affect the height and level of the cabinets, which in turn can affect the installation of the benchtop. If you install the benchtop before the floor, you may need to make adjustments to the height or level of the benchtop to accommodate the new floor, which could be costly and time-consuming.
Installing the floor first ensures that the cabinets are level and at the correct height, which provides a stable and even surface for the benchtop. Additionally, if you are using natural stone, such as granite or marble, the weight of the benchtop can cause it to crack if it is not properly supported. Installing the floor first allows for the proper support structure to be put in place to ensure the benchtop is supported evenly.
It is important to note that the installation process may vary depending on the type of benchtop and the specific requirements of your kitchen. It is always best to consult with a professional installer or supplier, such as Banks Benchtops in Gold Coast and Brisbane, for specific recommendations on the installation process. They can provide guidance on the order of installation and any additional considerations to ensure a successful and long-lasting installation.
