hi all
im planning to do my kitchen cabinet soon. my new house is under construction. at this moment, the kitchen counter top is yet to construct. i need feedback from everyone here:-

1. I have get several carpenter to quote on the cabinet. Majority mention that since i have not construct the concrete top it is better for them to built the whole cabinet. If i have done the concrete top, it is limited for them to built the cabinet for friendly usage. How true is this?

2. What kitchen top is good?
i) those from developer concrete tiles top?
ii) granite/marble/quartz top?
iii) solid surface (sort of similar to granite but it is human made)?
iv) HPL worktop?

i need urgent feedback from everyone here before they start constructing my kitchen. thanks! smile.gif

before that u need to know ur budget and your preference like durability or beauty?

if budget was not a concern:
-durability go for concrete top but forget about beauty, if combined two then go for concrete top + granite (the cost is HUGE  shocking.gif )

nowadays lesser ppl go for HPL already, so called outdated liau lah ..... normal one also used solid surface. solid surface price can be vary from RM 90- RM 300pfr also got but need to be careful on this S/Surface coz the cheaper versions is imported from china one u knowlah hah .....too technical to tell but basically is low standards.

Granite depends on the type of stones, do have quality/grade also ..... ask relliable stone shops they can tell the different.
