Epoxy Countertops in Halifax

Epoxy countertops have many benefits when compared to other countertop options.  From appearance to durability, epoxy resin enhances the existing countertop material without requiring it to be removed and replaced. 

Endless Design Options

Epoxy countertops can be made to look like just about anything you want them to.  Want the look of expensive white marble in your bathroom, but don’t want to pay for it or worry about maintaining it?  A marble epoxy countertop can give you the same look at a fraction of the cost, and you don’t have to worry about scratching an expensive piece of marble!  Epoxy can be crafted to resemble granite, or it can be used to seal wood countertops without detracting from the wood’s natural beauty.   If you can design it, we can make it a reality!

Durable, High-Gloss Finish

If you want your countertops to shine, an epoxy countertop is for you.  Epoxy resin is one of the highest gloss options available and, unlike other coatings, it does not require you to reapply the top coat every so often.  Epoxy countertops will also not crack or chip like other surfaces, and they are heat resistant (though not heat proof - just like other countertop options, you can’t leave a baking sheet that just came out of the oven on the countertop for hours!).  If epoxy resin is durable enough to be used on factory floors, you can rest assured that there is little you can do to damage your epoxy kitchen countertops.

Easy to Maintain

Unlike granites and marbles that require specific cleaning products and routines, epoxy countertops can be cleaned with just about anything.  The surface of an epoxy countertop is non-porous, so nothing will soak into the material.  Spills can be simply wiped away with a towel, and the epoxy will not be damaged even if you have to scrub away stubborn debris.  If the finish does begin to dull over time, a quick application of mineral oil will immediately restore its shine. 

Safe and Non-toxic

Epoxy resin has a bad reputation due to the strong odor it produces.  While there can be harmful compounds in the fumes produced during installation, fully cured epoxy resin countertops are completely safe and non-toxic.  Food can be prepared directly on an epoxy kitchen countertop with no risk to health or taste.  Epoxy is also resistant to mold and mildew, so you don’t have to worry about the water on your bathroom counter promoting the growth of undesirables on or inside your countertop.  Don’t let the initial smell of epoxy resin leave a bad taste in your mouth - epoxy countertops are completely safe, whether you are preparing food in the kitchen, serving drinks on an epoxy bar counter, or brushing your teeth in the bathroom.

Versatility

When you replace your countertops, you generally have to remove your old countertops (and hope that you don’t damage your cabinets or anything else in the process).  With epoxy countertops, no demolition is necessary.  Epoxy resin can be poured directly over your existing countertops, regardless of what they are made of or the condition they are in.  Modernize your kitchen with an epoxy over tile countertop, or seal your wood bar top with an epoxy coating to protect it and make it shine.  Give your formica counters the look of granite or marble.  With epoxy, you can make your countertops look however you want without removing or replacing a single thing!
