The defining feature of solid surface is the hard seam. This isn’t just gluing two rocks together with silicone. It is a chemical welding process. If you have ever been frustrated by the visible caulk lines in granite or the peeling edges of laminate, you will appreciate our installation process: Phase 1: Laser Templating Because Simonton homes can settle on the clay soil, walls are rarely perfectly square. We use precision measuring tools to create a template of your cabinetry. This ensures the countertop follows the unique contours of your walls. Phase 2: Fabrication & The “Hard Seam” This is where the magic happens. Preparation: We machine the edges of two sheets of solid surface to be perfectly flat. Chemical Bond: We apply a special two-part adhesive that is color-matched to the specific material batch. This adhesive slightly melts the edge of the material. Fusing: We clamp the pieces together tightly. As the adhesive cures, it fuses the two sheets into a single, monolithic piece. Sanding: Once cured, we sand the area. Because the material is consistent throughout, the sanding removes the excess adhesive and blends the two pieces until the seam is virtually undetectable to the human eye. Phase 3: Integration We can take this “seamless” concept further by integrating sinks directly into the countertop or coordinating with custom cabinetry built-ins services in Simonton, TX to ensure a flawless fit between your storage and your surfaces.
