All our butcher block counters come with installation instructions. Installation is simple. Only minimal fixing is required, as the butcher block will be held down by self weight, plumping, etc. It is best to fix your butcher block into the same strip of wood at two fixing points. Fixing of your butcher block is best done through the underside of cabinet base framework via a 7/16" pre-drilled clearance hole and #10 gauge screw with a washer.

It is best to install your butcher block counter over base cabinet framing, but not over solid underlayment, which would prevent proper ventilation.

Yes, you can. In fact, many of our customers purchase standard sized butcher block counters and have them cut on site. If you cut your butcher block counter at home, or have your carpenter cut it for you, be sure to reseal your butcher block counter wherever you've cut it with at least 4 coats of sealer. Good sealing of your butcher block is essential to prevent abrupt and excessive moisture movement to and from the wood.

Our edge grain butcher block counters come standard with a straight 90 degree edge. The edge is not sharp to the touch, but rather is slightly eased. Our end grain butcher block counters come standard with edges rounded on a ¼" radius.

Yes, you can, though it is important that your appliance be properly insulated to prevent excessive heat transfer to the butcher block.

No. Wood is a live material and will expand and contract with changes in atmospheric conditions. Gluing your butcher block would interfere with the natural expansion and contraction of the wood and is therefore not recommended.

Although we are no longer offering sink/stove cut-outs, this is something you can easily do on site. In fact, the majority of our customers prefer to purchase a standard-sized butcher block counter and have the cut-out done on site, either on their own, or by a carpenter.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Assuming your block has a finish on it, clean it like you would any wood surface, not allowing water to remain on the block for any length of time. DO NOT put it in a dishwasher! To help preserve your block if used as a cutting surface it would be advisable to periodically reseal ONLY the area in which you have cut. Mineral oil or vegetable oil can be used.

Butcher Block has been used for hundreds of years. The largest reason is for the strength. When you look at one of our exterior doors, you are looking at the edge grain. The wood is cut to take the stress out of the wood and then face glued. When you use solid piece wood rails and stiles, the wood tends to cup or bow Æ you do not have this problem with properly sealed butcher block.

All of our exterior doors feature butcher block rails and stiles. The carved doors will also be made of butcher block. The only doors that will not be made from butcher block are the interior pine and interior knotty alder doors. For these, the rails and stiles will be made from solid stock. On our pine builderÍs series doors, you have the option of solid pine tung and groove panels rather than butcher block. Otherwise, everything will feature the butcher-block style.

To ensure the highest quality, our butcher block counters are all built to order. The normal lead time on standard cuts is 3-4 weeks.

To clean a natural oil finish butcher block, first scrape loose with a steel scraper or spatula any heavy food particles or foreign matter that may have adhered to the butcher block surface. After brushing or scraping all loose particles from the butcher block surfaces, take a dish cloth dipped in soapy water, or water with a very mild detergent, and wash the butcher block surface as you would any other wood surface.

Varnique semi-gloss finished butcher blocks clean up easily with mild soap and warm water. Varnique is impervious to most household chemicals, though it is wise to avoid the use of harsh chemicals or harsh detergents that may damage the finish. Varnique, though less permeable to water than natural oil, is not impermeable; therefore, it is wise to clean up liquid spills on your butcher block counter as soon as they appear.

For natural oil finish butcher blocks, we recommend that you re-oil all surfaces of your block every 4 weeks or so. Because butcher block wood is a live material, extremes of humidity and dryness can swell and shrink your butcher block enough to cause seasonal checks to appear. This possibility, though remote, is an unavoidable condition of enjoying the beauty of a living material.

Butcher block is a live natural material that is permeable to water. Natural oil finish butcher blocks will develop water spots if water is left standing on the surface. Varnique semi-gloss finish butcher blocks, though less permeable, will also spot and absorb water if water is left standing on the surface. On both natural oil finish butcher blocks and varnique semi-gloss finish butcher blocks, it is best to clear up water spills as soon as they occur.

You can easily restore your natural oil finish butcher block by sanding with heavy duty grit sandpaper and re-oiling with pure white mineral oil, which you can purchase from a local hardware store or grocery store.

In the UK the Beatles' release sequence included Rubber Soul (1965) and Revolver (1966). In the US, Capitol avoided extra royalty costs by releasing an interim album called "Yesterday and Today", with some songs from the "Help", "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver" albums. (American law regulated the number of songs which could be included on an LP under a lower royalty rate; hence Capitol regularly issued Beatles LPs in shorter formats than their UK counterparts).

Just drill a hole in the middle of the plug, put a screwdriver in (or something else that fits in the hole) and bend the plug out. Sounds easy?
