Stainless Steel Cutting Boards & Countertop Surfaces

Custom Metal Home fabricates countertops in 14-gauge 304 stainless steel, zinc, copper, and brass. Each material offers distinct aesthetic and functional properties. Stainless steel is the top choice for food-safe, high-traffic environments, while zinc, copper, and brass are popular for bar tops and decorative residential applications.

Yes. Custom Metal Home can fabricate countertops with integrated undermount-style sinks, drainboards, and backsplashes in a single seamless piece. Sinks can be customer-supplied or custom-fabricated. Integrated drainboard and backsplash options (4–6 in height) are also available to create a fully functional, unified surface.

Available edge profiles include square, eased, beveled, marine/rounded, waterfall edge, and integrated drainboard or sink configurations. Corners are finished with a 1/8-inch radius as standard. Custom straight-bend and marine raised edges are also offered to suit both modern and traditional kitchen designs.

Finish options include brushed, mirror, hammered, satin, and light, medium, or dark patina. Each finish is hand-applied, allowing for a custom aesthetic. Brushed and satin are most popular for kitchens due to their ability to conceal minor scratches, while mirror and hammered finishes are favored for bar tops and feature surfaces.

Custom fabrication typically takes 4–8 weeks depending on complexity, material, and integrations such as sinks or backsplashes. Custom Metal Home ships nationwide and also offers on-site measuring for customers in the Chicago metro area. Detailed computer drawings are provided before fabrication begins to ensure accuracy.
