Replacing kitchen units without removing granite

Posted by Matthew Wilson, on
We'd like to replace our kitchen units but we have granite worktops which look far too heavy to remove without an army of people! What is possible?

Hi Matthew It's not just the size and weight of the granite you after be very careful handling them as it is very brittle and won't stand up to rough lifting and shoving. You need to release and adhesive that fixs the tops down to the units and the wall tip them back onto the back edge and also carry them on there edge. Best luck Martin
