Kitchen Trim to Cover Gap Between Worktop and Wall Fillers, sealants and adhesives for all types of DIY work. Help, advice and information on all aspects of this subject

[mrtropicana]

Hi, I have a problem with my kitchen worktop but I'm not in a position to replace it. The sealant is coming away but the gap is too large to replace it - is there such a thing as kitchen trim that I could use to cover the gap? The image explains it better than I can. Thanks.

you can use pvc quadrant trim

I would also ask why that gap has occurred.

From the photo it seems that the gap has grown significantly since when the sealant was first applied, The black wood suggests water has been allowed to continually permeate and warp it. Which is a lot for a block board worktop!

If that is the case a strip of quadrant may not be all the answer as that will not flex to follow the contour of the warp.

Repairing and treating the wood will be critical to ensure the best result going forward.

Then a combination of trim and sealant may do the trick.
