We are to have granite installed in our 8 year old kitchen. Our present counter top is formica with wood trim. For the life of me, I can't see what is holding the counter top to the Merillat solid hickory cabinets. I am looking under the cabinet at the particle board substrate and see no fasteners. In pulling up on the top it is obvious that something is holding the top onto the cabinets very well and evenly across the length. I would like to remove the top myself since the cost for the installer to do it is between $600 & $700.
What do you believe is used to attach the top to the cabinets?
