Countertop Edges in Sumner, WA

Beveled Edge

A beveled edge of a countertop includes a cut about 45 degrees down, which acts as a mirror and reflects the light that enters the room. This is nice for a room with plenty of natural light, as it will make the area even sunnier and more pleasant. For countertops, it’s possible to do a single bevel or a double bevel with a cut at the top and bottom edge.

Square Edge

The square edge is a 90-degree edge, but it’s not as sharp and dramatic as it sounds, as that would be a safety hazard for everyone in your home. Instead of being straight, the edge is slightly rounded with a “kerf.” This style is one that flows nicely with any type of countertop material and gives off a very modern, contemporary feel.

Eased Edge

This type is similar to the square edge, but the top of the edge is rounded while the bottom remains square. Because of the round surface, you can lean on the countertop without worrying about indents on your skin or any discomfort.

Bullnose Edge

A style that’s often found used with granite countertop, the bullnose edge includes no sharp edges. The smoothness puts the countertop thickness on display. You don’t have to worry about spills on a bullnose-edge countertop because the way that it’s formed allows the spill to drip down the cabinetry instead of directly to the floor.

Half-Bullnose Edge

This is the midpoint between a square edge and a bullnose edge countertop. The top of the edge is bullnose, while the bottom stays square. If you’re not interested in having spills drip onto your cabinetry, then this is the way to go. With this edge, they’ll drip directly to the floor.

Dupont Edge

The Dupont is one of the most popular edge styles, as it involves a straight surface that drops with the curve of a bullnose. This looks great with any remodel.

Miter Edge

If you want your countertop to look thicker, then the miter edge is a good choice. With a countertop wrapped around the sides with a thick frame, it gives off the look of being thicker without actually adding any weight.

French Cove Edge

This is a relaxed variant of the Dupont edge. With the bullnose cut at the bottom that turns square, this is an elegant style that goes well with marble countertops.

Ogee Edge

Ogee edges have an S-shaped curve with a straight top edge that curves down instead of dropping suddenly toward the bullnose curve at the bottom.

Waterfall Edge

The waterfall edge is a contemporary look that doesn’t have a drop but extends vertically, all the way to the floor. This type of edge creates a seamless look for your remodeled room.

Chiseled Edge

The chiseled edge gives off a very natural look and feel. It can also be called “broken edge” or “rock face”—two fitting names—because the edge of the countertop looks broken instead of being smooth and polished like other edges.

Quirk Edge

A quirk edge is an L-shaped cut on the edge, which makes it look like a one-step staircase. This style goes well with quartz countertops because of its sleek look.
