As for the Hob being 60mm off the wall - erm there's a discussion about ours being 30mm away, not quite what the instructions said!! The worktops may be coming out!! Is the lack of bang for bucks the only reason you don't like acrylics? Is Apollo quartz any better, or should we even consider reverting to good old laminate which seems to ahve gone on in leaps and bounds if the tops are going to have be re done.
And whats the guidance if upstands shouldn't be there? We have got a splashback to go in (glass type), and it was going to sit on the upstand, but could that go directly behind the hob, and its not wode enough to fill the 150mm from each side of hob, making the upstand a total of 300mm away from a 900 hob - so a 1200 gap to fill. Thoughts advice and guidance welcome!
ok id have sold you the quartz (slightly dearer) superior product to acrylics!
fit tops, fit hob (correctly) install splashback, bring upstands to edge of splashback( avoid any dishes that flambe) and you should be ok
I didn't fail the test, I just found 100 ways to do it wrong.
