Re: Price to upgrade 40mm Caesarstone? 2Sep 07, 2017 8:55 pm Is there an overhang? $1700 is about what I would expect a builder to charge for this upgrade.

Going for this look http://www.caesarstone.com.au/blog/part ... n-rehashed Anyway would love any input! the stone you have chosen is very costly and around category 5 and the price will also depend on the length. Just to upgrade cat 1 stone would cost around 500 to 800 from 20 to 40mm. u can choose one cat less say 4 and see what the price comes for comparison. follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Re: Price to upgrade 40mm Caesarstone? 4Sep 07, 2017 9:05 pm meshelf Hi, just looking for some quick advice we have asked for a variation price on upgrading our kitchen island from 20mm to 40mm Caesarstone Calacatta Nuvo and the price came is around $1700 more!

Going for this look http://www.caesarstone.com.au/blog/part ... n-rehashed Anyway would love any input! remember the stone width is anyway going to remain at 20mm - it is only the edge part that will be 40mm - that's what I was told. follow my build Arden homes Votivo 37 iin south east: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=88622 Price to upgrade 40mm Caesarstone? 5Sep 07, 2017 9:31 pm CuttingEdgeKitchens Is there an overhang? $1700 is about what I would expect a builder to charge for this upgrade. Yes there is an overhang for stools - if that is what you mean....? The design is like this island. So "builder charge for this upgrade" is outrageous but in realm of ok Re: Price to upgrade 40mm Caesarstone? 7Sep 08, 2017 12:41 pm mrsrusty CuttingEdgeKitchens Is there an overhang? $1700 is about what I would expect a builder to charge for this upgrade.

With an overhang like that you have to have a solid piece of stone underneath to cover the overhang. This piece of stone could be 350x the length of your bench top. So its not just a small piece all around. The price in that cat stone isn't to bad.
