Wood gives you the opportunity to be creative and truly distinct through its different options for color, grain, hardness, and finish. Each impressive creation starts with the basic choice, the wood species.
The type of wood used for the construction of the countertop lends a lot of characteristics to the finished product. This includes the visual appearance, material strength, durability, and resistance.
Each tree is unique whether it’s a local tree or an exotic one. Typical wood species used for countertops are mahogany, oak, hickory, Brazilian cherry, maple, walnut, birch, mesquite, bamboo, and ash.
The overarching look of the countertop is dependent on the method of lamination. The way each strip is joined gives the countertop a distinct appearance while also contributing to the structural strength of the design. The three typical lamination styles are the edge grain, the end grain, and the flat grain.
Because of their many attractive features, wood countertops are becoming an increasingly popular choice for homes. Aside from their natural beauty, there are other benefits to selecting this surface material over others.
Wood is really economical since it’s easily accessible because it is abundant in nature and easy to replace. Wood reshapes easily and may be altered into the required state when combined with good workability. This greatly lowers the price point of wood compared to the other alternatives of stone.
The surface of the wood can be strong and resistant to the force that is applied to it. However, the interactions of hard materials with the wood surface are significantly gentler in terms of feeling and sound.
When a plate is set down, there is barely a clatter, and the softer surface provides less feedback, making it less likely to break precious glass or ceramicware.
Wood countertops are incredibly good at bearing the stress of use and age. Even after several years of use, the surface’s original beautiful look can be revived with a little elbow grease. The wooden surface can be easily refinished to remove knife marks, scratches, and scuffs.
Regardless of light or heavy use, wooden countertops can bear the test of time.
Wood Countertops are very heat resistant but it is still not advisable to set hot pots and pans directly on the surface for long periods of time.
Simply scrubbing with a sponge and dish soap is enough for the daily upkeep of Wood Countertops.
If they are properly cared for then the Wood Countertops can last for a very long time without having to change them.
