Solid Wood Countertop
Installation
PLANNING FOR EXPANSION GAPS
- The countertop expands and contracts depending on the microclimatic conditions of the room.
- Provide expansion gaps between the edges of the countertop and wall, which allows for this wood movement.
MOUNTING THE COUNTERTOP
- Mount the countertop to the cabinet frame or drill oversized holes in your support blocks.
JOINING COUNTERTOPS
- Method 1: When using miter bolts to join tops, use two or three clamps at each joint, depending on the width.
- Method 2: Using multiple biscuits or mortise/tenon joints with pocket screws on the underside is another joint method.
CUTTING COUNTERTOP TO SIZE
- Use a circular saw with a fine tooth blade with removable tape (1) on the cut line to minimize chipping.
- Clamp a straight edge (2) to the top as a guide for your circular saw to achieve a straight cut, especially when two cut edges will be joined together to avoid any gaps.
Maintenance
Cutting or refinishing your countertop
If you plan to cut or need to refinish your countertop, use a spray lacquer
for an even finish. Please see the finish manufacturer’s instructions for the
finish application.
Care and Cleaning
- Remove any spills from the surface. Do not allow the water to lie on the surface for a long time.
- Always use protective mats or pads under hot dishes, or leave them to cool on the stove.
- Use a soft cloth and warm water when cleaning. Never use concentrated cleaning detergents, especially those containing bleach.
