Cleaning

Some clients use their butcher blocks as a large cutting board, others treat them like fine furniture.  In either case, clean up entails simply wiping the surface with a moist sponge after use.  Avoid harsh detergents and puddles of standing water.  That's it!

Maintenance for your countertop depends largely on how you use it and what finish was specified.

Maintenance for Surfaces with Natural Oil + Wax Treatment

Natural Oil finished tops are designed to be cut right on them, just like a cutting board.  Because wood is a natural, living material, it needs to be regularly conditioned or "moisturized"  to maintain its original luster and develop its own unique patina,  just like you should be doing with all of your wooden ware in the kitchen.  Re-oiling is simple,  just spread oil evenly over the surface, allow it to soak in for about 5 minutes then wipe the excess off with a clean rag.  It's that easy!
