Glass counters are easy to install. The most challenging part is placing the glass on top of the cabinets, which requires careful handling to ensure safety. Once in place, a simple silicone seam along the edges that touch walls is enough to prevent liquids from seeping underneath the glass. In addition to installation documents, Thinkglass is always ready to support clients through the installation process.
Yes! LED lighting is an optional feature for all Thinkglass projects. Our integrated plug-and-play lighting solutions are easy to connect and add a stunning visual effect to your bar, kitchen, bathroom, or workspace. The LED is integrated inside the glass, illuminating the countertops and leaving a lasting impression on your guests.
Yes, glass countertops are heat-resistant and won’t discolor or mark under heat. While thermal shock is highly unlikely, we recommend using trivets or hot pads to protect the surface from direct contact with hot pots or pans to maintain its longevity.
Glass is a very hard and durable material, but certain materials like ceramic or metal, can cause scratches when dragged with pressure along the surface. However, Thinkglass countertops are designed with a unique texture on the bottom of the glass that are very forgiving. These textures help conceal potential scratches over time, ensuring the surface always remains visually appealing.
Glass is a non-porous material, which makes it easy to clean and resistant to stains from common kitchen substances like turmeric or red wine. Unlike granite or marble, glass doesn’t require sealants or special care. A simple wipe-down is usually enough to keep the glass surface spotless, leaving no residue or marks behind.
The most common thicknesses for kitchen glass countertops are 1-1/2" and 2". The 1-1/2" thickness is the standard choice, while the 2" thickness offers a more substantial, impressive appearance. Both thicknesses offer excellent durability and aesthetic appeal.
Glass countertops are translucent, allowing some light to pass through. To maintain privacy and avoid seeing inside base cabinets or drawers, we recommend closing them off with a solid substrate, like plywood or chipboard, and adding a metallic laminate on top. This laminate reflects lightbeautifully while keeping the contents of your cabinets hidden.
Investing in a ThinkGlass piece is like touching a dream and making it a timeless reality!
