NV Stone / Porcelain slabs
Porcelain Benchtops
& Splashbacks
Considered surfaces. Carefully crafted details.
Custom porcelain benchtops, islands, splashbacks and vanity surfaces. Templated onsite, crafted in Slacks Creek and installed across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Northern NSW.
01 / Porcelain for your space
A coordinated finish, from benchtop to splashback.
Porcelain slabs are manufactured ceramic surfaces offered in a range of colours, patterns and finishes, including stone-inspired designs. We help resolve the selected product, slab layout and fabrication details together, so the finished surfaces work with your cabinetry and architecture.
Kitchens & islands
Plan preparation space, island seating, sink openings, appliance cut-outs and exposed ends as one design. A slim edge or mitred fascia can create different proportions, subject to the selected product and construction.
Splashbacks & bathrooms
Coordinate benchtops with splashbacks, vanity tops or feature panels. Slab dimensions, pattern direction, wall preparation and the position of taps and fittings help determine the layout and joins.
Outdoor kitchens & BBQ areas
Selected porcelain products can suit exterior applications. We confirm approval for the proposed exposure, finish and installation, then coordinate supports and appliance clearances with the project team.
02 / The details that shape the result
Look beyond the surface pattern.
Slab selection & layout
Review the actual product, finish, batch, slab sizes and usable dimensions against the plans. Pattern direction and repeat influence how adjoining surfaces meet. We discuss joins and vein alignment without promising an invisible seam.
Edges & mitred fascia
Confirm the appearance of the exposed edge as well as the face. A surface pattern may differ from the slab body. Mitres, built-up edges and waterfall ends require a construction suited to the selected porcelain.
Cut-outs & support
Sink and appliance models affect corner radii, opening sizes, remaining material and support requirements. Cabinetry, substrates and overhangs are reviewed against the chosen manufacturer’s fabrication guidance.
Have a curved detail in mind? Send a drawing or reference image. The available shape and edge treatment depend on the product, thickness and fabrication method; details used in natural stone are assessed separately for porcelain.

03 / Choosing your material
Porcelain or natural stone?
The right choice depends on the look you want, how the space is used and the details you value. Porcelain offers manufactured patterns and finishes; natural stone has geological variation that differs from slab to slab. Compare full slabs and samples in the proposed lighting before deciding.
Choose the appearance
Consider pattern scale, finish, edge colour and whether matching pieces are available. Review a physical sample rather than relying on a screen image alone.
Choose the construction
Discuss thickness, fascia depth, cut-outs, joins, sink installation and support early. The same drawing can require different construction in different materials.

04 / Our workshop & installation
Templated onsite. Crafted in Slacks Creek.
We template your porcelain surfaces onsite, then manufacture and finish them in our Slacks Creek workshop. We coordinate installation around the specified product, substrate and site conditions. Where included in your scope, we fit sinks onsite ready for your plumber to connect. Sealing and treatments are assessed for the selected surface and installation rather than automatically applied.
01 / Plans & selection
Send drawings, elevations, material preferences and project location. We review the stonework and provide a quote for the agreed scope.
02 / Site template
Have cabinetry installed, level and supported, with relevant appliances onsite. We confirm dimensions, cut-outs, joins and edge details.
03 / Manufacture
Slab layout, cutting, shaping, assembly and hand finishing are coordinated around the selected material and design.
04 / Install & care
We coordinate site readiness and access, complete the quoted installation and provide care guidance. Plumbing connections are completed by your plumber.
05 / Everyday care
Keep the finish looking its best.
Follow the selected manufacturer’s care guide. Clean spills promptly with an approved cleaner and a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Use chopping boards and heat mats, protect exposed edges from heavy impacts and avoid dragging heavy objects across the surface.
Care requirements can vary with the product and finish. We review any sealing or treatment requirements with the supplier and provide the relevant handover guidance for your selection.

07 / Planning your project
Porcelain benchtop questions.
Can porcelain slabs be used for kitchen benchtops?
Yes, when the selected product and thickness are approved for benchtops. We review the layout, cut-outs, supports and fabrication instructions before confirming the scope.
Can the benchtop and splashback use the same porcelain?
Often they can, subject to the product, available slab sizes and layout. We plan pattern direction, joins and adjoining pieces together.
Can porcelain have a thicker mitred edge?
A mitred fascia can create a deeper edge where the product and fabrication method allow it. We confirm the proposed construction and edge appearance during quoting.
Can I have an undermount sink?
Send the sink model and plans. Suitability depends on the porcelain product, thickness, cut-out detail and independent sink support. Where included, we fit the sink onsite ready for your plumber to connect.
Can porcelain be used around an outdoor BBQ?
Selected products are approved for exterior use. We review exposure, the chosen product and the appliance requirements, including clearances, ventilation and supports, with the relevant trades.
Does porcelain need sealing?
Check the selected manufacturer’s guidance. Porcelain is generally a low-porosity surface, but treatments, finishes, joints and installation materials need their own assessment. We confirm the care requirements for your selection.
What affects the cost of porcelain benchtops?
The exact product, slab quantity, layout, joins, mitres, splashbacks, cut-outs, supports, handling and installation access all affect the quote. Send plans and the product name for a tailored scope.
