If your not too heavy of a person as well as your help, why not just put some protective covering on top of your corian n change out the cabinets by standing on it...unless your ceilings are too high or theres no way to position ladders around it.
You would need a sharpened putty knife and a thin pry bar. Carefully use the putty knife to cut the caulk around the edges of the cabinets and countertop. Very gently use the prybar to pry the countertop all around a little at a time. Go slow Corian can break.
Oh so sorry, thought you said above them, when I had granite set in all they used was a bond glue in a tube. .like quick grab...so most likely the same..just pry it up carefully..and this stuff corian or granite is very heavy..need lots of strong arms..took 6 men to carry in and set my not very big granite island top. Thats the reason I suspect for the $$estimate
Use clear caulk. It's just stabilize the countertop from moving ot shufting. The weight of the countertop will hold it in place.
thanks
