Bespoke Worktops Service

Bespoke worktops service at Norfolk Oak means pretty much anything you can imagine that can be done with a wooden worktop. Bespoke doesn't just mean sink cut outs, it can be oversized breakfast bars, large curves or complete circles - bespoke wooden worktops to any shape and size. Below is a list of the 'standard' options we offer. If you have more specific requirements in mind or would like to receive a complete quotation please visit our Receiving A Bespoke Worktops Quotation page for more information.

Pre-Installation Oiling Service

Back to top ∧

If you would like the reassurance of us oiling your wooden worktops ready for you to install or if you simply don’t have the time or means to do this yourself, we offer an oiling service. We oil both sides of the worktops, around 6 coats, so they are ready for immediate installation. Whilst it cannot be left in a damp environment, a wooden worktop which has Pre-Installation Oiling can be left a while before fitting.

Once the worktop is in, the top and exposed edges will require further coats, around 6, and additional hand sanding to achieve the full protection and beautiful finish. With our oiling service you are automatically supplied with the correct quantities of oil needed to finish the worktop.

Costs start at £ 35 per linear metre.

Of course if you would prefer just to buy the oil it is £ 15 a litre, which is enough to finish one three metre long wooden worktop.

Wooden Upstands (splashbacks)

Back to top ∧

Wooden upstands provide a wonderful aesthetic to the back edge of your kitchen worktop. However the secret benefit of wooden upstands is covering up all sorts of problems; walls which aren't straight, corners which are never quite 90 degrees. Fixing wooden upstands has been made simple with the advent of 'no more nails' glue - push the wooden upstand into place, hold firmly for a couple of minutes and that's it.

We make our wooden upstands in two styles; 'Wide Block Upstands' with joints along the length - suited to our Classic Wide Block worktops, and 'Super Stave Upstands' in continuous lengths with no joints - suited to our Super Stave and Traditional Plank wooden worktops.

Worktop Edging

Back to top ∧
We offer a range of edging styles to compliment your wooden worktops. As standard our wooden worktops are supplied with square edges, whilst this creates a very clean and defined look, this won't however be to everyone's tastes.
Walnut Worktop Edging
As a guide, a simple pencil edging is enough to soften the edges of the worktop whilst a full bullnose rounds them completely.
We are able to produce a range of different edging types on request. Please feel free to contact us if you have any edging in mind that is not listed on our website.

Pencil Top edge only - £ 8 per metre

Pencil Top and bottom - £ 16 per metre

Bullnose - £ 24 per metre

Radius Corners

Back to top ∧
Radius corners provide an attractive finish to your worktops, whether part of an overall design or simply to remove a sharp corner.
Oak Worktop Radius Corner
As a guide, 40 mm is about right for the internal corners of a Belfast sink and 10 to 20 mm is great for rounding off the corner of a worktop where it might otherwise present a sharp point. Use large radius sizes of around 200 mm and over to make a real statement.

up to 50 mm - £ 15

51 mm to 250 mm - £ 25

over 250 mm - from £ 35

Butt Joins (joint between two worktops)

Back to top ∧
When two wooden worktops meet they require a method to join them. For this we recommend using a 90 degree butt join. Specially shaped bolt holes are routed out in the underside of your wooden worktops. This allows the fitting of worktop connector bolts designed to pull your worktops together to aid in the joining of the two separate worktops.

£ 48 per butt join (includes worktop connector bolts)
Worktop Connector Bolts
When joining two worktops we recommend the use of a clear silicone sealant between the worktops. This creates a flexible, waterproof joint that can be easily seperated should the worktops need to be removed for any reason (maybe taking them with you if you move home!)
