Benchtops

Splashback

The team were recently in Balnarring Beach installing gorgeous Smartstone Calacatta Manhattan kitchen benchtops and splashbacks in a new construction. We fabricated the benchtops to 55mm with mitred edges, waterfall ends and undermounted sink.

Calacatta Manhattan is a new surface from Smartstone's Toledo Collection, and is perfect for Hamptons and French Provincial kitchens. This surface is rich, yet subtle, featuring dramatic veining with gold accents on a luminous creamy white background. Available in a range of profile sizes in a polished finish. Read more about this surface in our previous Blog post, or visit the Smartstone website.

More honed granite installations in Somers


The last of the honed Zimbabwe Black granite installations have gone into the new build we've been working on in Somers. We fabricated and installed an outdoor kitchen benchtop and window servery bench & they look great. You can't go past granite for strength & durability in outdoor applications, unlike many quartz products that are for indoor use only, not only is it extremely hard wearing but it will look amazing for years to come.

Honed granite vanity benchtop in Sorrento

Honed granite vanity benchtop in Sorrento

Here's another look at the new construction we're working on in Sorrento. This project involved the manufacture and installation of Zimbabwe black honed granite for a vanity benchtop, as shown above. This granite was also installed in the kitchen bench tops and splash backs and used on the fireplace hearth.

So what is honed granite? We manufacture granite in a range of finishes to suit your individual project and the look and feel you're going for in the room. Honed finishes are very popular at the moment as they give a softer, more natural look to the stone. The surface achieved can vary from low sheen, through to a completely dull, matt finish, and the texture can vary from smooth to rough, depending on the length of the manufacturing polishing process. The granite is finished to a dull, smooth surface that has little to no reflection, but can decrease the depth of the colour of the stone. 

Whatever finish you choose, WPS can step you through the process and show you samples of the finishes that can be achieved to bring out the natural beauty of the stone. Contact us for further information or for a quote to have stone installed at your place.
