Do I need to purchase a new sink and/or faucet ahead of my countertop measure appointment?

Yes. You must purchase your new sink and faucet in advance of your scheduled measure appointment in order to ensure a precise measurement for the fabrication of your new Dekton countertops. You can speak to our installers during your initial scheduling call, or visit your nearest Home Depot store, for recommendations on available sinks and faucets to match your newly-installed Dekton countertops.

Why do I need a Measure & Quote appointment?

The measurement appointment is the first step to ensuring a seamless Dekton installation. During the appointment, the Dekton countertop installer will map your installation site in detail to assess the labour required, including any important repairs, plumbing or electrical work. The installer will also take precise measurements of your surfaces to ensure we order the right amount of material for your Dekton installation. At the end of your measure appointment, you’ll receive a quote detailing all costs, so there are no surprises with your final bill.

Is the measure fee refundable?

The measure fee is non-refundable; however, it will be fully credited toward your countertop installation cost if you proceed with the project.

Can I request samples for my countertop measure appointment?

Upon request, your installer will be able to provide countertop samples for your measurement appointment. You can speak to your installer during your scheduling call about what style and colour you want for your countertops and to request samples for review during your measure appointment. Samples are not required for your measure appointment, however we cannot provide an accurate quote if you have not chosen a product.

What are the benefits of a Dekton countertop?

Dekton countertops are engineered for superior durability, offering better scratch resistance than natural quartz Dekton countertop surfaces are non-porous, making them virtually stainproof, so your countertop will return its sheen for years to come Heat resistant Dekton countertops can withstand extremely high temperatures Unlike Silestone, a Dekton countertop can withstand the effect of UV rays and water, making it a great choice for outdoor kitchens.

What are Dekton countertops made of?

Using their exclusive Sinterized Particle Technology, Dekton® has engineered a highly durable and scratch resistant ultra-compact surface composed of raw quartz, glass and porcelain. With zero-porosity, the Dekton ultra-compact surface is ideal for outdoor spaces, and can withstand exposure to the elements.

Are Dekton countertops durable?

Thanks to the unique sintering process that fuses its component materials together under extreme heat, Dekton is a highly resilient and strong surface material for countertops. It offers excellent scratch, heat, UV and moisture resistance and retains its resilient properties whether installed indoors or outdoors.

What’s the best way to clean and maintain Dekton countertops?

Dekton countertops should be cleaned regularly with a soft sponge or cloth, mild dish soap and warm water.

	Dekton	Silestone
Cost to Install (per square foot)	Starting at $90	Starting at $65
Composition	Sintered stone: crushed quartz, porcelain and glass fused together under high heat	90-95% crushed quartz stone, bonded together w/ polymer resins
Water/moisture	Nonporous, waterproof material; keeps out moisture & stains	Nonporous, water-resistant. Resin keeps moisture on the surface but can stain if resins wear down
Heat	High heat resistance, can place hot pots and pans directly on surface	Direct exposure to high heat can damage the surface (scorching, melting, warping, etc.)
Scratch	Excellent scratch resistance	Excellent scratch resistance
Chip/shatter	Exceptionally strong material, but can chip around edges and joints if subjected to hard impact	Less prone than Dekton to chipping; shattering is unlikely
Ease of Repair	Generally difficult to repair once a section has chipped	Easy to repair chips and scratches; cracks and heat damage are harder to fix
Outdoor Application	Weather and UV-proof; preferred material for outdoors	Resists moisture but susceptible to fading and other damage from prolonged UV, weather and heat exposure
