Installation & Aftercare Essentials
Worktop Installation Pack - £22
The essential installation pack contains everything you need to install your worktop 100% correctly. Each pack contains:
1litre Danish Oil
20 Slotted Brackets (Inc Screws)
2x Key Clamps & 3x Biscuits
1x Protective Moisture Barrier
3x Wax Sticks
(Please select which wood type you are installing so that we can provide the correct colour wax sticks.)
£7.00
Upstands - from £22.50
We highly recommend mounting Upstands between your worktops and walls to provide a professional finish to your fitted worktops. 90% of walls are not completely straight which means that worktops will rarely fit completely flush. Additionally, a small expansion gap is required to allow for slight movement in the wood over the years. Upstands are the best solution for concealing these gaps and provide an elegant finish. Upstands can be cut to size and are available in three different styles (50mm x 17mm, 100mm x 17mm or 40mm x 40mm) to cater for your individual taste and requirements.

Protective Wooden End Caps - from £30 each
End caps provide a protective elegant finish to the end grain area of worktops. In addition to their decorative qualities, it is essential that end caps are fitted to worktops sited directly alongside Aga, Rayburn and other range ovens. These ovens produce a lot of heat and the end caps will help to protect the worktop ends from drying out and splitting. We also strongly advise fitting end caps to Island Units and Breakfast Bars to prevent them from warping or cupping over the long term.
Endcaps are 40mm in thickness and width and available in three different lengths 640, 760 & 920mm. Encaps are supplied pre-drilled, and include securing screws and wooden plugs to cover the screw holes after installation.

Danish Oil - £12
We offer a convenient pre-oiling service for full-length and bespoke worktops - plus upstands. Our craftsmen will apply up to 6 coats of Danish Oil (depending on your chosen wood) prior to packaging and delivery, making them ready for immediate installation. Please visit our installation & aftercare advice page for full information.
All of our hardwood worktops are supplied un-oiled but it is essential that they are treated correctly prior to installation. We recommend that you also purchase additional oil for future top-up applications, to keep your worktop always looking at its best.
Alternatively, you can purchase the oil from us for self application. Please visit our Installation & Aftercare section for important information on the procedures for treating your worktops yourself.
| Pre-Oiling Service | £12 per Metre |
Metres |
| 1 Litre Danish Oil | £12 | £5.00 |
| 5 Litres Danish Oil | £45 | £10.00 |
Advantages of Danish Oil
- Forms a flexible waterproof finish.
- Resists abrasion and acids.
- Does not blister or peel like varnish.
- Does not mould like linseed oil.
- Long shelf life.
Moisture Barriers - £10
(600mm x 640mm Aluminum sheet)
Always fit a moisture barrier if your worktop is being installed above kitchen appliances that produce a large amount of heat or moisture (washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, boilers or built-in fridges & freezers). Fitting an aluminium moisture barrier to the underside of the worktop prevents excessive moisture from penetrating the wood.
£2.00
Hot-Rods - (200mm, 300mm or 400mm lengths)
Stainless Steel - £10 each
(fitted free of charge)
Brass Plated - £15 each
(fitted free of charge)

Hot-rods are fitted into 5mm recesses and are available in three different lengths and two different metals (Stainless Steel or Brass Plated) to accommodate the coverage and style that you require.

Breadboards - £20
(350mm x 300mm x 40mm)
A matching breadboard will complement your worktop and provide an ideal dedicated cutting area to protect your worktop from damage. Breadboards are available in all of our wood types.
£0.00
Wax Sticks (3 pack) - £5 
The beauty of a wooden worktop is that small cracks and accidental dents can always be easily repaired. The three wax-fillers provided in each pack have been carefully selected, for each individual wood, to provide you with the perfect colour shades required to invisibly repair any area of your chosen worktop.
£1.50
Worktop Connectors & Biscuits (3 pack) - £3
Worktop connecting clamps and biscuits are essential when joining or butting worktops together. If you are arranging this work yourself, our packs provide a low-cost way of purchasing only what you require.
£2.00
Slotted Expansion Brackets (20 pack) - £5
We cannot recommend using these brackets enough when fitting your hardwood worktops to bease-units. Hardwood worktops simply must be fitted to the baseunits using slotted expansion brackets only. Take care to ensure that the brackets are always fitted the correct way round and do not over-tighten the screws. These brackets will allow for the worktop to naturally expand and contract across the width in accordance with changes in humidity. Failure to use the correct brackets or fit them correctly can apply undue stress to the worktop and may cause splitting to occur.
