Worktop Joint

Our local Homebase sells them

Any good woodworking place will cut the surface and put butt and scribe joints in for about £55. Use the coloured worksurface glue from Screwfix for a good result.

Homebase or B&Q will do it in store for you.

Cheers

This is OK IF the corner is square

You could get it done professionally for around £60 if you are in Essex

In which case you would adjust the position of the units and worktop, and not cut an out of square joint.

This is a matter of degree (ahem 'scuse the pun). If the walls are out so that you have more than a couple of cm gap at the back then you are going to have a lot of trouble. In my experience that sort of misalignment is normal.

You can buy a metal joint strip that is formed to take both faces, it is fixed to both worktops, does the job for about 5 pounds, fit it yourself.

That's what I call a salmonella joint, if you want it to look right you gotta pay for it

Recently doing up my mum and dad's old house and in the kitchen I remember some of the dodgy practises that went on there. By rights we should have all been long deceased with all manner of illnesses but for some strange reason I can hardly ever remember anyone having a gut upset and of course allergies were unheard of...

Perhaps our excessive cleanliness?. After all you should seen how my old grannie lived, and she waited till she was 89 before she departed this life, and I never recall her being ill......

It was a client who first coined that phrase.

She was/is a nursing sister at a local hospital

We should take hygiene advice from British hospitals ?
