When Emily Maher contacted RH Wood Floors, her kitchen worktop was in dire need of restoration.
Years of use had worn away the oil finish, leaving the surface stained and water-damaged, particularly around the sink area.
The worn appearance of the worktop was negatively impacting the entire kitchen's aesthetic.
The project presented several challenges, including intricate sanding around built-in cabinets, sink drainage, taps, and splashback.
RH Wood Floors tackled these issues head-on, utilising their counter, table, and island sanding services. In just one day, the team transformed the worktop using hand-held high-power orbital sanders and hand scrapers.
To minimise dust, all sanding tools were connected to vacuum systems. The sink drainage grooves required special attention; the team ingeniously used rolled sandpaper matching the groove shape for precise sanding.
Rather than re-applying oil, which requires frequent maintenance, we recommended a high-quality floor varnish. This custom solution offers superior durability, lasting 8-10 years compared to oil's 2-3 times per year reapplication requirement.
The varnishing process, especially for the drainage grooves, demanded meticulous attention to ensure even application without pooling. The team's expertise shone through as they addressed these challenges with skill and precision.
Emily was thrilled with the results, as evidenced by her glowing review on Google.
The team provided maintenance advice, recommending regular wiping down while avoiding harsh chemicals like bleach and detergents.
This shows our ability to breathe to new life into worn kitchen worktops, transforming them from eyesores to stunning focal points.
