Worktops Coating
At J&D Kitchen Makeovers we offer multiple worktop coating solutions for reviving and protecting your worktops. Whether a laminate, hardwood or stone worktop, we can restore it to its former glory or transform it into something different and new.
These varied methods we use cater to different aesthetics and practical needs, enhancing both the durability and style of your kitchen worktops.
Worktops Spray Painting
Kitchen worktop spray painting is an innovative solution for those looking to rejuvenate their kitchen without the expense of a full renovation. This method allows for a complete colour transformation, offering a fresh, new look to your kitchen space. The process involves a meticulous preparation of the surface, ensuring it’s free from grease and imperfections. Specialised paints are then evenly applied through spraying, providing a smooth, flawless finish that traditional painting methods can’t achieve. The durability of spray-painted worktops is remarkable, resisting wear and tear from daily kitchen activities, and is easy to clean, maintaining its pristine appearance over time. With a vast range of colours and finishes available, spray painting empowers homeowners to customise their kitchen worktops to suit their individual style and decor preferences.
Worktops Epoxy Coating
Kitchen worktop epoxy coating is a game-changer for both protection and aesthetics. This two-part resin system, when applied, forms a hard, crystal-clear surface that is both waterproof and highly resistant to heat, scratches, and stains. It’s an ideal choice for those looking to preserve the beauty of their worktops or to give them a glossy, modern finish. The application process involves carefully mixing and applying the epoxy to ensure a smooth, bubble-free surface. Once cured, it creates a seamless, non-porous layer that is easy to clean and hygienic, making it perfect for kitchen environments. Epoxy coatings also offer the flexibility to add pigments to it or embed objects like shells or pebbles for a unique, personalised touch. This coating transforms ordinary worktops into durable, stylish, and functional surfaces, suitable for the rigours of everyday kitchen use.
Granite-like effect coating
Spray Granite is a one-of-a-kind coating system available in the UK and European markets.
Designed with the latest state-of-the-art technology, the product creates a natural granite finish using real granite flakes in a water-based resin that is ideal for spraying worktops.
The coating system offers a palette of 22 different spray granite colours. From modern shades of grey to traditional tints of brown and everything in between, there is a colour to suit every taste and project.
Each of the 22 colours can be paired with various background shades, creating an infinite number of fantastic-looking surfaces.
The spray granite system not only offers bespoke colours but also a range of different finishes. It can be installed as satin, gloss or matte. When applied, real granite flakes provide a slightly rough texture to the surface, which can be sanded down for a smooth finish.
Spray Granite is a great choice for restoring a used, old worktop if you are looking for a stone effect, but want to avoid the hefty costs of a stone worktop.
Wooden Worktops Restoration
Restoring real wood kitchen worktops can be approached through three distinct services: oiling, staining, and varnishing, each offering unique benefits. Oiling service involves applying natural oils like tung or linseed, which penetrate the wood, enhancing its grain and providing moisture protection. This service is ideal for regular maintenance, keeping the wood nourished and resilient. Staining service changes or enhances the worktop’s colour, giving it a refreshed or entirely new appearance while highlighting its natural beauty. It’s perfect for worktops needing a colour boost or tone correction. Varnishing service, using durable products like polyurethane, adds a protective top layer. This shields the wood from water, heat, and scratches, making it suitable for worktops in high-use kitchens. Each service caters to different aspects of worktop restoration, ensuring longevity, beauty, and functionality.
