Wood Kitchen Island Tops
The island is where the kitchen actually happens — homework, wine, rolling dough, everyone leaning. It’s also where wood belongs: warm where stone is cold, quiet where stone rings, and repairable where everything else is replaceable.
The most popular kitchen we build for pairs a quartz or stone perimeter with a solid walnut or white oak island — the practical material where the splashing happens, the beautiful one where the people are. Milled to your exact cabinet run, priced instantly in the Builder.
Island Specifics
Seating overhangs
Island seating wants a 10–12″ overhang. Hidden steel C-channel routed into the underside carries it flat for life without visible corbels — add it in the Builder, priced by the foot of width.
Sinks and cooktops
Prep-sink and cooktop openings are CNC-cut to your template before finishing, with every inside edge sealed against moisture. Undermount, drop-in, and workstation styles all supported — add the cutout in the Builder and send the spec after ordering.
The waterfall question
Waterfall ends are a Builder option: pick the left end, the right end or both, enter the inside height, and the leg is priced as the same panel continued — its board feet at the species rate plus a flat miter fee per end. The grain wraps the mitered corner and runs to the floor. The waterfall countertop guide covers the joinery, live edge, and what it costs.
