Hi guys,

I have existing concrete top that thinking to replace with porcelain top. Anyone has experience whether I required to demolish the whole existing concrete OR just extract the top tiles and install the porcelain? I've enquired with a kc contractor. Was told that i must replace WHOLE thing instead just install the stone as top

After hacking to remove the top tiles it will look something like egg carton surface. That condition of bombed out cement screed (post-hacking) need further levelling to get it perfectly level.
Plus if you stick porcelain top over the ex-concrete top section, it will look very thick.

So KC contractor rather demolish the whole concrete as it is "easier" to build it up?

Typically in hardware installation (KC, reno) or software works (database data insertion) building from new is usually easier than (cleaning up mess from other people).
Also partly commercial reason.. they are KC maker not "rework/refurbish specialist"
You can try to contact stone top supplier instead.
