Questions

Stainless steel fabrication FAQ

What should I send for a stainless table or counter?

Send a layout with dimensions, sinks, equipment and backsplash details. Show access for delivery and say whether installation is needed.

How do I choose the stainless grade?

Tell the fabricator about food contact, cleaning products, salt and water exposure. Ask for the recommended grade to be written into the quote.

What should I ask about the finished welds?

Ask whether visible welds will be blended to match the surrounding finish. Send a finish sample or photo and mark the faces that matter.

Good to know

  • Ask whether weld cleanup, finishing and installation are included in the quote.
  • No Kitchener shop we checked posts prices for this. Send a request to compare quotes.
