Solid Timber Worktops

Staves:

The individual boards that make up the worktop. Stave width can vary, but we try and source timber giving individual stave widths of between 100mm to 240mm. Generally 4 or 5 stave widths for a standard 600 worktop. Being that every worktop is bespoke, we can however give you any stave width you want – dependant on the timber available at the time.

Joints:

Generally tongue and grooved joints, giving a joint that runs the full length of the timber. We can also biscuit joint, so no joints can be seen at the ends of the worktops.

Worktop Ends and Edges:

Our worktops ends will finish with the stave widths and joints clearly visible. We can fit end caps if requested.

End caps can be fitted as an extra.

Worktop edges can come square edge or rounded. We can produce shaped tops at an extra cost, but will need a template to go from.

Knots:

All our worktop timber is sourced very carefully, and the best timber is chosen for the job in hand, but please do expect a few knots (in fact we prefer there to be a few small ones). We can supply completely clean boards with no knots, but please do specify when ordering, your chosen preference.
