Can anyone recommend a good brand of laminate worktops, please?
Because of the washing machine, they have to be 630mm deep (or breakfast bar) and 3.6 or 4m long.
At first, Duropal looked good then I saw a thread on some forum saying they chip when cut.
I was thinking about getting custom IKEA ones but their stores are closed.
Many thanks.
All chip if sawn. Cut oversize & trim with a router.
None are good, they're all made from chipboard which swells & disintegrates when wet. They're just cheap. Accept it, seal it as well as you can, keep it as dry as practical. Or build with something decent like concrete, stone, tile etc. Those have their own issues.
A hipster friend has concrete. Don't get concrete!
