Hi am thinking of corian sink ( bone ) and a qooker tap , however I am worried that as it is boiler water will it damage the corian sink? I know you have to use heat resistant pads with saucepans. Great web site by the way. :D

Does anyone have any experience with Quartz radianz worktops by samsung?

Their samples looked great, however the quality now its fitted isnt so good.

I'm refitting a room as home office and want to have a full-width (wall-to-wall) desk under a window along the short wall. Span of 2300mm between masonry walls.

Hello,

I believe standard Corian worktops are 13mm of Corian on a 25mm backing. With a deeper downturn to make the worktop look say 60mm deep is the backing increased to 47mm thick? I'm also wondering what impact this has on fitting an induction hob.
