design and cabinet construction”.

Laura: Alla: |
“My new beautiful kitchen from another
company became not so beautiful when I put my kitchen stuff. My cabinet’s
sides are not very straight anymore. The same situation with shelves. Why it
happened? “ |
“It could happen if the thickness of your
cabinet’s sides and shelves is 5/8-inch. Most high-end kitchen companies use
for sides and shelves 3/4-inch melamine or plywood gables. Some companies use
5/8-inch material because it is cheaper. It is very difficult to realise the
difference visually before you loaded cabinets. But after that sides and
shelves may become a little bit bended. Usually it is not very dangerous and
some people OK with it. We
use only ¾-inch gables and our customers never have this problem!” |

“Does Granite stain?” “Granite
is treated with a special sealer before leaving the factory and again before
installation in your home to help resist staining. Be careful of acidic
products like red wine. Oil based products may also cause staining. Wipe
these types of spills up straight away and wash with warm water and a mild
phosphate-free cleaner with a lint-free cloth or sponge.” |
Tanya: Alla: |
“What
kind of high gloss finish can I have for my new kitchen?” “They are: melamine, vinyl or PVC, acrylic, gloss
lacquer. Not all high gloss kitchens are equal. The quality and price
increases as you are moving from melamine to lacquer.” |
Joe: Alla: |
“What’s
VOC-free kitchen?” “VOCs ( Volatile Organic Compounds) are carbon-based
chemicals easily evaporated at room temperature. You can read about Health Effects of
VOC-emission (Cancer, asthma,
allergies, fatigue etc.) in many Government publications. We offer you zero VOCs kitchens and other cabinetry (not just using low VOC topcoat like our competitors). It’s absolutely new technology: environmentally friendly and healthier for you.” |
Peter: Alla: |
“What
are Quartz Countertops?” Quartz
countertops ( HanStone, Caesarstone,
Silestone, Zodiaq ) are
93% Natural Quartz, one of nature’s
hardest minerals. The quartz is combined with high-quality polymer resins and
pigments and then compacted under intense vacuum, vibration and, pressure to
form dense, non-porous slabs. The slabs are cured, then gauged to precise
thickness, and polished to a lustrous shine. |
