That kadappa was better and easy to clean. It won't last for more than two months. Edges will accumulate dirt. Just for your information if you don't know. That whole countertop will be hardly 12sqft. If the supporting pillar is strong better to do granite or tile on top. Tiles are way cheaper than granite. But you will need extra labour cost for that. You can get easily granite cut in that required length and if there are two persons to help you you don't even need labour to place that on top and can do it just by watching any video. Any granite per sqft 100rs or less than that will cost less than 2500 including cement and sand. Transport cost extra may or may not be there.
Wrong installation. Don't have to leave that gap at the start. The paper will come off easily in some time. Have to cover even the sides to make it last long
Gas stove is in wrong direction it seems... It should be at window side actually ....so all the cooking steam & stuff goes out of house & cleaning tiles wouldn't be needed anymore 🤔
