The process

Three steps,
usually one visit.

  1. Estimate. Tell us the surface, the stone, the finish you want and where the project is up to. Photos or plans help. We come back with a price, and can visit to confirm on site.
  2. Preparation. The stone is cleaned and checked. Edges, cut-outs and joins are planned so the film follows the benchtop rather than fighting it.
  3. Application. The film is laid and finished edge by edge. You get care instructions at handover and a 13-year warranty behind the work.

Not sure whether your stone is marble, dolomite or quartzite? Pick “Other” on the estimate form and tell us what you know. Identifying it is part of the assessment.

Kitchen by kitchen

Every kitchen
wears differently.

Where a benchtop marks depends on how the kitchen is used. Keen cooks see oil and acid marks along the cooktop run. Families see rings and stains on the island. Coffee lovers see drips under the machine. Entertainers see wine rings wherever the bar ends up.

We look at how your kitchen works at the assessment, so you know which areas matter most and what to expect. Most people protect every stone surface in the kitchen so it all ages the same way.

Browse by stone in the Surfaces menu, or by room: islands, splashbacks, butler’s pantries and more.

Care

Looking after it
once it is protected.

01Wipe down after cooking

with a soft damp cloth.

02Use a pH-neutral cleaner.

No sealers, no special products.

03Use boards for cutting.

The film is not a chopping surface.

04Trivets above 250°C.

For pizza stones and very hot cookware.

What benchtops can you protect?

Natural stone: marble, dolomite, quartzite, travertine, limestone and granite. That covers kitchen benchtops, islands, splashbacks, butler’s pantries, vanities and tables. We confirm suitability for your specific stone at the assessment.

How long does a kitchen take?

Most kitchen benchtops take a few hours. A large island plus back bench, or a kitchen with a butler’s pantry, can take a full day.

When is the best time to protect a new benchtop?

Straight after the stone is installed and before the kitchen is in daily use. If you are building or renovating, book us in for the week after the stonemason finishes.

Do you work with builders and stonemasons?

Yes. We regularly fit in around trades on new builds and renovations, and we work with stone suppliers who refer their clients to us.

How much does benchtop protection cost?

It depends on the area, the stone and how many edges, cut-outs and joins there are. Send us the surface, stone and suburb through the estimate form, with photos or plans if you have them, and we will come back with a price.
