Laminate

Homeowners are re-discovering laminate's ease of installation and surprisingly low cost. If the term laminate countertops doesn't ring a bell, the name Formica or Wilsonart probably does. Formica, a brand name of the oldest type of laminate counter material around, has long carried the laminate legion, for the rest of the industry. Alas, times change; and for laminate countertops, change has been for the good. Many of the myths and assumptions about laminate countertops have been shattered, opening up more kitchens and bathrooms for laminate countertops. Manufacturers such as Wilsonart bind a protective layer (in Wilsonart's case, it's called AEON) to the laminate, making it up to 500% more scuff and scratch resistant, 400% more wear resistant. Give us a call or stop in to discuss the cost effective and durable options of laminates for your next project.

Laminate countertops like those made from wilsonart or formica provide an affordable and practical option for homeowners seeking a budget-friendly surface. Composed of layers of paper or fabric impregnated with resin and bonded to particleboard, laminate countertops come in a wide array of colors and patterns. Modern day technology has made it possible for laminate tops to closely emulate the natural appeal of natural stone and quartz. Laminate countertops are easy to clean, resistant to stains, and offer a cost-effective solution for those on a budget. Though not as durable as natural stones, laminate countertops can expect to last for decades and for that reason, remain a popular choice for functional and economical kitchen designs.
