02 Material guide
What is Dekton
and where is it used?
Dekton is a high-performance mineral surface produced in large slabs. It is used for made-to-measure worktops, islands, splashbacks, wall cladding and selected outdoor applications. Its low-porosity surface and resistance to heat, stains and UV light make it a practical option for many contemporary projects.
Islands and waterfalls
Large-format slabs can create a continuous look across an island top and down one or both end panels.
Splashbacks and walls
Matching panels can continue the surface behind a hob, around a window or across a feature wall with fewer visual breaks.
03 Compare surfaces
Dekton compared
with quartz.
| Planning point | Dekton | Quartz |
|---|---|---|
| Construction | High-performance mineral surface | Engineered surface using quartz minerals and binders |
| Typical uses | Worktops, islands, cladding and selected exterior applications | Primarily interior worktops, islands, utility rooms and vanity tops |
| Heat and sunlight | Designed for strong heat and UV resistance | Hot cookware should normally be placed on a trivet; prolonged direct sunlight may not suit every product |
| Design choice | Large-format contemporary finishes and slim-profile options | Very broad range of colours, patterns and familiar worktop finishes |
| Best choice | The right option depends on the layout, selected colour, edge detail, use of the room and the manufacturer's guidance for the exact product. | |
04 Care and quotation
Simple care.
Clear price factors.
Daily care
Wipe with warm water and a mild cleaner, remove spills promptly and avoid abrasive pads. Follow the care guidance supplied for the exact Dekton finish.
Protect edges
As with any hard surface, avoid heavy impacts around exposed edges and cut-outs. Use chopping boards and protect the finished installation during other building work.
What affects price
Slab colour and thickness, total area, access, edge profile, cut-outs, drainage grooves, splashbacks, waterfall ends and the number of joints all affect the quotation.
05 Frequently asked questions
Dekton
questions.
Can Dekton be used for a full-height splashback?
Yes. The exact panel size, joints, socket cut-outs and access need to be planned from measurements taken on site.
Can the worktop and island have matching waterfall ends?
Often, yes. The slab layout and visible pattern direction should be agreed before fabrication so the finished surfaces work together visually.
Do you need final measurements before quoting?
Plans and approximate dimensions are enough for an initial discussion. Final fabrication requires a template or accurate site measurement after the cabinets are ready.
Is Dekton always more expensive than quartz?
Not necessarily. The chosen product, slab usage, thickness, layout, cut-outs and fitting requirements matter more than a single material label. A like-for-like quotation is the best comparison.
