Pietra Light Concrete Solid Surface Worktop

Pale grey with a very fine speckle, Light Concrete is a soft concrete effect cast as 25mm solid surface. The surface is light and slightly textured to the eye, supplied as 3050mm worktops and 900mm-deep breakfast bars with an upstand.

Thickness and edge
Size

What's an upstand?

Upstand, 100mm highWorktop 100mm high 22mm thick Silicone bead 600mm deep worktop Wall

What it is

A 100mm-high strip in Pietra Light Concrete, the same decor as your worktop. It sits along the back edge of the worktop, against the wall.

Why you need one

Walls are rarely straight, so there's nearly always a gap between worktop and wall. An upstand covers it, stops water and crumbs getting down the back, and gives a neat finished line. It's the simplest, cheapest way to finish a worktop.

Sizes

    Most kitchens need one length per wall run.

    Fitting

    Cut it to length with a fine-tooth saw and bond it to the wall with grab adhesive. Run a bead of clear or matching silicone along the bottom edge, and finish any exposed ends with an end cap.

    Upstand or splashback?

    Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

    Read the full fitting guide

    What's a splashback?

    Splashbackupstand heightHob and oven 640mm high 10mm thick Worktop Wall

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Pietra Light Concrete, the same decor as your worktop, fixed to the wall behind the hob or sink.

    Why choose one

    One continuous wipe-clean surface with no grout lines, so there's nothing to stain or scrub between tiles. It protects the wall from splashes and cooking grease, and makes the worktop and wall look like one piece.

    Sizes

      Behind a hob

      Check the minimum clearance to a laminate panel in your hob's installation manual. Gas hobs usually need more space, or a heat-resistant panel behind the burners.

      Fitting

      Cut it to size and bond it to a flat, sound wall with panel adhesive. Seal the bottom edge to the worktop with silicone.

      Upstand or splashback?

      Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

      What's an edging strip?

      BeforeCut end: barechipboard core AfterEdging strip,45mm wide, coversa cut end

      What it is

      A strip in Pietra Light Concrete that covers the cut end of the worktop. It comes pre-glued, or is fixed with contact adhesive.

      When you need it

      Whenever a cut end is on show: at the end of a run, on a breakfast bar, or anywhere you've cut a length down.

      Sizes

        Fitting

        1. Glue Spread contact adhesive on the end and the strip, or warm a pre-glued strip.
        2. Press Press it on firmly from the middle outwards, with a block of wood.
        3. Trim and file Trim the overhang with a sharp blade, then file the edges down at a slight angle.

        What are joining strips?

        Corner strip (L-shape)Straight stripSeen from above Aluminium strip38mm worktop: use the38mm stripWorktopWorktop

        What it is

        An aluminium strip that joins two worktop lengths without a router or jig. The web slips between the two ends and the cap covers the joint.

        Straight or corner

        Straight: joins two lengths in a line. Corner: makes an L-shaped join where two runs meet.

        Sizes

          Match the strip to your worktop's thickness: a 38mm strip for a 38mm worktop.

          The alternative

          A mason's mitre gives a seamless corner, but it needs a worktop jig and a router. See both options in our fitting guide.

          What are end caps?

          BeforeAfterExposed endEnd capScrewed over therounded profile Left end capRight end capYou, facing the worktopWall

          What it is

          An aluminium cap that finishes the exposed end of a postformed worktop, following its rounded front edge.

          Left or right?

          Stand facing the worktop. If the exposed end is on your left, you need a left end cap; if it's on your right, a right end cap.

          Sizes

            Match the cap to your worktop's thickness.

            Fitting

            Hold the cap against the end, drill small pilot holes and screw it on. A thin bead of silicone behind it keeps water out of the end.

            What's in the joint kit?

            3 connector boltsJoint sealant Seen from underneathBolts pull the joint tight;sealant keeps water out

            What's in it

            Three connector bolts and a tube of joint sealant: everything to hold one worktop joint together.

            What it's for

            The bolts sit in pockets cut underneath both worktops and pull the joint tight. The sealant goes on the joint faces first, so water can't get into the core.

            How many?

            One kit per worktop joint.

              Delivery

              Delivered by our specialist worktop delivery partner, in full lengths, flat and protected. Delivery is free to every postcode we serve. Order by 4pm Monday to Friday for next working day delivery to most of England and Wales; orders placed after 4pm, at weekends or on bank holidays are dispatched the next working day, and some areas take 2 to 3 working days. Check your date below. We confirm your slot 24 hours before, and delivery is kerbside, so have a second person ready to carry it in.
              Returns

              Changed your mind? You have 14 days from delivery to return it unused, uncut and in its wrapping; we refund within 14 days of getting it back. Report any damage within 48 hours. Full returns policy.

              Care and cleaning

              Wipe with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, then dry. The pale speckled finish hides light dust, though coloured spills like tea should come off promptly. Fine scratches yield to the care kit pads.

              Which edge?

              • Postformed: the laminate wraps a soft, rounded front. Classic and hard-wearing.
              • Square edge: a sharp, modern line with a matching edge strip.
              • Compact: 12mm solid board, slim and waterproof.
              More on edges and thickness

              Fitting in four steps

              • Measure, then cut face down with a fine-tooth blade.
              • Lay it on the units and screw up through the brackets.
              • Seal the cut edges, then fit the upstand and end caps.
              Read the full fitting guide

              How to measure

              • Measure each wall run along the back, in millimetres.
              • Add about 50mm to every run so you can trim to a clean fit.
              • In an L-shape, let the longest run go into the corner.
              Full measuring guide

              Size guide

              • Worktops come 3000mm or 4100mm long and 600mm deep.
              • Breakfast bars are deeper: 665mm or 900mm, for islands and overhangs.
              • Buy a length that covers your run, then cut it to fit.

              Why you’ll love it

              • Pale grey with a fine speckle

                Tiny dark and light specks give the pale ground a granular, poured look at close range. Seen across a room it settles into one gentle, airy grey.

              • A body without weak points

                Cast acrylic is the same all the way through, with no veneer to chip. If a corner picks up a mark, the care kit pads blend it away.

              • Everything in one pale grey

                The 3050 x 100 x 12mm upstand and the 2000 x 900 x 25mm bar are available in this decor, so an island and the wall run stay together.

              Light and airy for small and bright kitchens

              A pale concrete look keeps a compact kitchen feeling open, since it reflects daylight rather than absorbing it. It works with white metro tiles, sage or navy cabinets and pale timber floors, and with black taps for contrast. In a first home or a rental, it gives a clean, current finish without the upkeep of polished stone. It also stays quietly in the background if you change colours later.

              How speckled is Light Concrete?

              The speckle is very fine, with tiny dark and light grains across a pale grey ground. Up close it feels textured, while from a distance it reads as an even soft grey.

              Will it brighten a small kitchen?

              A pale surface bounces daylight around, so it helps a compact kitchen feel larger. Pair it with light cabinets and a white splashback for the brightest result.

              Does it show crumbs and marks?

              The fine speckle disguises light dust and crumbs quite well, though darker spills show on a pale top. Wipe them away soon and the surface stays clear.

              Is an upstand included?

              The matching upstand is a separate item at 3050 x 100 x 12mm, available in this decor. Add it to your order if you want the wall edge to match.

              Can it take a heavy mixer tap and sink?

              Solid surface is 25mm of solid material, so a standard mixer tap and an undermount or inset sink are possible. Have your fitter prepare the cut-outs.

              Which is better, Stone Haze or Light Concrete?

              Stone Haze shows faint horizontal streaks and a deeper tone, while Light Concrete is paler and evenly speckled. Choose Light Concrete for the plainer, brighter look.
