Why does kitchen furniture fail? And is the proper installation of the kitchen so important?

Like any other cabinet or upholstered furniture, a kitchen set requires careful handling, excluding mechanical damage. A glass pan or dishes with a thick bottom like Zepter, sharply rearranged from the stove, left on the plastic countertop will burn the coating or leave a dark stain. And sooner or later water will fall on the chips and deep cuts of the countertop, which will cause the fabric to swell and dry out, unless the countertop is made of natural marble or granite, which almost no one changes.
But based on the personal experience of our masters, the replacement of kitchen worktops most often occurs when the installer made mistakes during its installation. After an illiterate installation of the kitchen, the manufacturer of the kitchen is no longer important, whether it is a kitchen from Italy or Russia, the cost of the product, the accuracy of handling furniture or the service life - failure to follow all the technological rules for installing furniture and kitchen countertops will necessarily lead to the rapid failure of the new kitchen set.
That is why we always recommend that customers learn about the competence of installers and the technology of installing a kitchen, in particular a kitchen worktop, before ordering a kitchen set or simply replacing a worktop. Since now there are a lot of repair companies, in which universal specialists are in one person, both in the installation of the toilet and in the assembly and installation of kitchen furniture, which do not even know how the kitchen is made and even more so it is mounted. This is a very important point, especially when the kitchen is not worth 50 thousand, but 500 or more, which means that it needs special attention.
Key features and advantages of the professional installation of kitchen furniture and separately countertops:
• kitchen furniture will last much longer;
• perfectly even arrangement of kitchen modules, both vertically and horizontally, and if the kitchen is angular or U-shaped, the corner joints should be ideally 90 degrees, for this, a competent measurement of the room is done when ordering furniture;
• impregnation with mastic or silicone sealant of all open cutouts (under the stove, connecting strips, sink, pipes) and saw cuts both on the countertop and on the kitchen cabinet;
• in the area of ​​the stove and sink, and preferably along the entire length, it is necessary to make a seal under the wall baseboard;
• easy access to pipes, taps and other utilities, so that you do not have to disassemble the kitchen, when connecting equipment, replacing water meters and pipes.
Cons of competent installation of the kitchen:
• only a specialist can disassemble or dismantle the kitchen, you will have to spend money on this;
• with a mortise sink installed in the tabletop made of chipboard with a plastic coating, you can say goodbye when replacing the tabletop, since with a quality installation, it is practically glued to the tabletop with sealant (put on the pillow from the sealant and smeared from the back, it can not be dismantled in 90% )

Replacing countertops in your kitchen, home or office, depending on the selected material for production, has the following features:
• Particleboard in plastic. In the installation of such a countertop, it is important to treat the joints and cuts with sealant or mastic, especially when the joint of the two countertops is euro-sawed according to the technology, rather than metal docking strips.
• Granite or natural marble. The insertion of the sink and hob in most cases is done at the factory. For transportation and installation of countertops on the right or left side of the cutout, two parts are connected, since having a large weight, a single piece of stone can break in thin places of the cutout, even additional reinforcement does not save from breakage. During installation, the connection of parts is carried out with the application of sealant and a special solution to fill the seam of the stone. Such a countertop will last forever, and the kitchen set itself is usually updated.
•    Fake diamond. The main difficulty of installation is to connect the parts if the kitchen surface is in several levels, or the kitchen is angled or U shaped. Distortions of the case are unacceptable, and the final appearance entirely depends on the polishing of the surface joints.
• Plastic lightweight countertop. Ideal for direct kitchens, no connections. Easy to install and maintain. Even in comparison with a chipboard countertop, it is ten times lighter and with the same plastic lining. It consists of five layers, the top and bottom plastic glued to a thin MDF sheet, the main layer of solid foam. Cons: end cuts are poorly processed, only the sticker of the metal strip.
