How long does a Maia worktop usually last?
Our worktops are manufactured using the very latest techniques and carry a 5 year guarentee against manufacturing defects, however, it can quite easily last a lifetime.

Not totally, while very high and direct heat will damage most solid surface products, solid surface materials do not burn or combust. In most cases the worktop can be repaired. It’s much better to take precautions from the outset, use mats etc to ensure your worktop retains its pristine finish.

Just use regular soap and water then wipe the surface clean. The use of ammonia-based cleaners are also a perfect way to keep your worktop looking great.

Light colours do show less wear than a darker colour shade. It really does boil down to personal preference though. Can a Maia worktop really be repaired?
Yes, it’s true, a Maia worktop can be repaired. We would always advise our customers to maintain their worktops as recommended though. |
