Anonymous users2024-01-23Generally speaking, water retaining strips are divided into front and rear retaining strips. The front flap is an edge on the outer edge of the countertop that is higher than the countertop to prevent water from flowing to the cabinet and floor. The back strip is the edge between the cabinet and the wall to prevent water from seeping into the gap.
Generally speaking, quartz countertops can't be made, only artificial stone and stainless steel countertops can.
First of all, the backsplash strip is a must, because if you don't do it, the water will seep into the gaps between the cabinet and the wall, which will not only cause mold, but also damage the cabinet body.
As for the front waterstrip, if your kitchen is an undercounter basin, you can not install it, because with the installation of the undercounter basin, the countertop will generally not accumulate much water, and the front waterproof strip is a gap under the bump, which is quite ugly and can not be repaired and can only be completely ground off.
But if your kitchen is not an undercounter basin, it is best to install a front water strip, otherwise, every time you cook, cleaning the kitchen will be very tiring, and it is not conducive to the drying of the kitchen environment.
