PWS WORKSURFACES 2018
OUR STORY SO FAR... In just ten years, PWS worksurfaces has grown to be one of the most sophisticated and largest fabricators of quality worksurfaces in the UK, with a dedicated commitment to worldwide sourcing, advanced manufacturing and high service levels. How have we done this? By continuing to make large investments in equipment that allow us to innovate, such as water jet technology. This type of equipment is not widely available and opens up intricate design opportunities, particularly with ultra compact materials, as well as increasing speed of manufacture. Our expertise is not limited to serving just one market. Rather, we supply the retail, contract and commercial sectors. With our national network of templaters we can reach you, wherever the job is. One of the highest value components of any kitchen is a quality worksurface. Therefore, it’s vital that it’s delivered right first time. Our 97% right first time manufacturing record, including material, production and transit, gives you the reassurance you need. So, whatever your worksurface requirements are we’d love you to put us to the test.
A WORLD-CLASS SUPPLY CHAIN We go to great lengths to ensure that the suppliers we work with are best in class. Our longstanding supplier relationships are built on trust and dependability, driven by our desire to supply innovative, high-quality products to our customers.
We source materials from the most technically-advanced suppliers in Europe and beyond. Our team source material from quarries, sawmills and manufacturers the world over. We have demonstrated our willingness to invest in our own manufacturing capabilities to match our customers needs.

SETTING THE STANDARD In a little under ten years, our worksurfaces business has grown to be one of the most sophisticated and comprehensive in the UK. A steadfast commitment to worldwide sourcing, advanced manufacturing and high service levels has seen us collect two awards in 2017. We’re very proud of what we’ve achieved and excited for what the future will hold. This year we have revised and extended the worksurfaces section in this directory to make it easier to use. We hope that you are as pleased as we are with the expanded range of products you will find.

STRATA QUARTZ
QUARTZ ROCKS! Extraordinarily resilient. Breathtakingly beautiful. Masterfully turned into worksurfaces. FINELY FORMED Unlike granite which is cut from huge, natural blocks, quartz worksurfaces are formed into slabs by experts, not nature. That doesn’t make it any less impressive.

Finger-stave worksurface
Full-stave worksurface
A ямБnger-stave worksurface is made up of relatively short, thin staves of wood by bonding them together and gluing them to make secure.
A full-stave worksurface typically features blocks with a minimum width of 40-50mm, which are bonded together along their sides, with each stave running the full length of the worksurface, resulting in no linear joints.

CONSIDERATIONS WHEN CHOOSING A PROFILE JOINTS When using a non-square proďŹ le, a mason’s mitre joint would be speciďŹ ed as standard. Please speak to a member of our team for more information.
BUILDING UP A PROFILED EDGE ProďŹ led edges can be built up to create the illusion of an extra-deep worksurface. This can be used in traditional and modern design applications. Please speak to a member of our team for more information.
INNOVATION If you have a particular speciďŹ cation we do not show, please let us know. We will strive to ďŹ nd a solution to create your design.

JOINTS TECHNICAL
JOINT TYPES
•
Joints will be supported front and back. Should this not be possible, a mason’s mitre can be used to move the joint over support.
Corner butt joint
•
Joints are typically 3mm thick.
•
All branded materials will use the suppliers recommended resin where possible.
•
PWS standard joint procedure uses a 2 part platinum resin. Pigment is added to create a colour match.
•
The maximum allowable lip between two jointed pieces is +/-0.5mm.
•
Solid Surface joints are seamless. where a solid surface material is directional a diagonal joint is used.
Straight joint
Mason’s mitre
Diagonal joint
SINK & HOB RAILS Exploded view of rails
*** Graphic to show hob rails. *** •
Rails are used as standard to reduce the size of a run, when the size is over specification.
•
Rails can also be used in wall-to-wall applications.
•
Minimum rail thickness is 55mm.
•
Rails will have biscuit grooves in both the rail and in the adjoining pieces. This type of joint is used to increase strength.

CUT OUTS
Cut outs need to be speciďŹ ed for sinks, hobs, taps, sockets (e.g.EvoLine)
Option of undermount, inset or recessed sinks
Cut outs can be speciďŹ ed with polished or unpolished edges
Natural structural variation in some materials results in some cut outs requiring support rails
A cut out requires a minimum distance of 50mm from an edge, to ensure structural stability
Material shown: Carbon Grey Flamed

Material shown: Statuario (Pattern match) book match also available
TAP HOLE 35mm diameter tap holes are specified as standard, unless otherwise stated.
BRIDGE TAP As bridging tap specifications vary, please provide us with clear details of your requirements.
EVOLINE If you are not using one of our products, please ensure you have it at time of template.
HOBS Please supply us with the make and model of your hob and whether it is gas or electric. Dependent on the material specified we may advise the use of rails. Please make clear if you require a flush or rebated hob cut out. Please double check your heat output and required hob spacing (this varies appliance to appliance).
SINKS Please supply us with make, model and fitting type; flush / undermount / inset. Please ensure you have the sink on site at time of template. Dependent on your choice of material we may advise using support rails.
BELFAST SINKS Please ensure, prior to templating, your Belfast sink is fitted in its final position. Due to the method of ceramic manufacturing, Belfast sinks vary in size. As a result the worksurface overhangs required can vary considerably. If the sink is in place we can create an accurate overhang template and ensure the correct positioning of drainer grooves.
SOCKETS AND SWITCHES Please let us know the number of plug sockets and light switches you require cut outs for. Please ensure any plug sockets or light switches are in-situ at time of template. *All appliances must be on site at time of template
PWS Worksurfaces: 01325 505522

CUT OUTS HOBS AND OVERMOUNT SINKS •
On Granite materials the central piece of the cut out will be left in with 8mm left in the bottom of the cut out, this is for added strength when transporting and carrying the work piece. This will then be removed on site (Some weaker granites may have 15mm left in the bottom of the cut outs).
•
Quartz material will have the middle removed completely in the factory.
•
The cut out will remain unpolished (this will be covered by the inset hob or sink).
•
Minimum rail thickness front and back is 55mm (the kitchen carcasses should be set far enough off the wall to allow for these minimum rail thickness by the kitchen fitter during their installation).
UNDERMOUNT SINK
The hob and sink will be dry tested at the end of the installation to ensure the cut out is correct.
Sink Type Steel
•
•
Undermount sink cut outs will be taken from the manufacturers recommended specification where possible. Chamfered edge polish to inside of cut out.
Undermount sinks will be sealed with a clear silicone around the rim to create a water barrier.

OUR SALES AND SERVICE TEAM WILL GO THROUGH YOUR DRAWING WITH YOU TO ENSURE ALL THE DETAIL IS CAPTURED.
PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
1.
Provide support in corners and behind appliances with wall battens.
2.
Please ensure windowsill areas are prepared and level. Please specify if a ‘lug’ is required, they are manufactured without as standard.
3.
A 5mm gap either side of any free standing appliance must be left. 8-10mm when an Aga is used with Corian® or Hi-macs® solid surface materials.
4. Please ensure any plug sockets or light switches are in their final position prior to splashback and wall-cladding templating. 5.
Wall units must be fitted for splashback and wall-cladding templating.
6. If you are using upstands please make sure there is a 20mm clearance from the top of the upstand to the bottom of ALL sockets. 7.
Ceramic and undermount sinks require additional support. PWS can supply a kit, please advise if this is required.
8.
Where two freestanding appliances are planned side by side please ensure an end panel is fitted between them. This must go to the floor as it is structurally essential.
9.
All cabinets must be fixed, level and in their final position.
10. To ensure a correct worksurface radius, curved doors must be fitted prior to templating. 11. To ensure a correct overhang, doors on a handleless rail system must be fitted. 12. Please ensure you have all appliances, sinks and taps onsite but not installed at time of templating. (With the exception of Belfast sinks which should be installed) Consideration as to how these are to be centred should be given i.e. to a window, wall carcase or base units.
TEMPLATES FOR FULL SPLASHBACKS AND WALL CLADDING WILL BE TAKEN AFTER THE WORKSURFACES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED TO ENSURE ACCURACY
A decision maker must be on site at time of template to discuss joint positions, appliance positions and answer any other questions that may arise.

OUR TEMPLATING SERVICE
O Where possible we use digital templating. It allows
us to capture the most accurate data possible. O It has improved template accuracy and allowed
seamless transition to our manufacturing process. O Eliminates the need for time consuming wooden or
plastic templates. O Your template information is stored electronically so
ďŹ les can be instantly emailed to our factory from any part of the UK. O This enables us to offer a 5-7 day nationwide lead
time from template to installation.
2.68
estimates@pws.co.uk
PREPARATION FOR TEMPLATING BELFAST SINKS Please ensure, prior to templating, your Belfast sink is fitted in its final position. Due to the method of ceramic manufacturing, Belfast sinks vary in size. As a result the worksurface overhangs required can vary considerably. If the sink is in place we can create an accurate overhang template and ensure the correct positioning of drainer grooves.
KITCHEN CABINETS To create an accurate template we need all of your kitchen units to be securely fitted in place. Digital templating requires physical location points to measure from. Missing an unsecured kitchen units can result in inaccurate measurements.
TEMPORARY WORKSURFACES Please ensure any temporary tops have been removed so we can record accurate measurements.
APPLIANCES Please ensure your appliances are on site and that you have details of the makes and models. We need to clarify cut-out sizes and positions. Not all cut outs are standard and vary from brand to brand. Please check you have left the required 5mm gap either side of any free standing appliance (range cookers etc) to allow for fitting and expansion.
OVERMOUNT / LAY-ON SINKS As with all other appliances, please ensure any overmount sinks are on site. It is particularly critical with overmount sinks as their bowls don’t dictate their location on the worksurface.
CURVES When templating for curved features, it is important that the door is fitted so the radius can be measured accurately. The cabinet alone is not always an accurate indication of the final radius requirement.
HANDLELESS DOORS (RAIL SYSTEMS) Doors need to be fitted for handleless rail systems. This ensures we accurately measure the worksurface overhang required.
FULL HEIGHT SPLASHBACKS & WALL CLADDING Please note splashbacks and wall cladding is a secondary template and installation process, once the worksurfaces have been fitted. Please make sure wall units have been fitted and socket plates have been removed so accurate measurements can be taken.
