  • There's room to use a router.

    Although the installer has already used a router on the underside to install the tap, instead of just buying a 50p length of m8 threaded rod...

    Which means that the routed underside is rotten too.

    The resin route is looking increasingly like the way to go.

    Although - I could just buy a new piece of wood, from worktop-express.co.uk, for £100, which is close the the amount that I am going to need to spend on tooling up.

    And I'll be able to put a proper 2k polyurethane on it before putting it in place, and maybe not have to deal with rotting wooden countertops until I get to rip it out totally and put in a proper countertop.

  • If you're going the new route, don't have the surround made of wood.
    I don't feel the rest of the counters can't be wood (ours are, no problems), but in a wet zone, really?
