When it comes to redesigning your kitchen, your countertops are one of the core elements that take priority. Not only are they the most used surface in the kitchen, but they\u2019re also a key focal point. It\u2019s important to opt for a functional and stylish countertop so you can use it for cooking, storing kitchen wares, and of course, adding an element of interior design to your kitchen space.<\/p>\n

Here at Savoy Timber, we\u2019ve been supplying our customers with quality home products for over 70 years. What\u2019s more, our\u00a0laminate kitchen worktops<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0have made stunning focal points and centrepieces in kitchens all over the country. So if you\u2019ve been considering upgrading your kitchen, here are five reasons why laminate worktops could be your ideal choice.<\/p>\n

Laminate kitchen worktops are highly affordable<\/h2>\n

Laminate is not only stylish but affordable. In fact, it’s one of the most effective countertop options available on the market, especially when compared with other materials such as marble, granite or quartz. So if you’re looking to stay within the budget for your kitchen makeover, laminate countertops are an excellent choice. It’s ideal for a smaller kitchen, but when it comes to cost, it provides brilliant value for money without compromising on aesthetics.<\/p>\n

The affordability of laminate kitchen worktops also makes for more straightforward repairs. If you accidentally scuff the top or set a hot pan on the side (we\u2019ve all done it), then replacing the section will be simple, easy and affordable!<\/p>\n

Laminate is highly durable<\/h2>\n

Another benefit of laminate is that it\u2019s highly durable, perfect if you\u2019re one of the many who spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking and preparing dishes on the surface. It\u2019s highly resistant to impact, scuffs, and scratches to a reasonable degree, making it ideal for large families. Laminate is also a difficult material to chip, unlike some stone worktops. And with the water-resistant surface, you won\u2019t have to worry about warping your beautiful countertops!<\/p>\n

They\u2019re hygienic and easy to clean<\/h2>\n

Stain resistant and easy to clean, laminate countertops are a superb choice for those looking for a beautiful but low-maintenance kitchen countertop. Compared with other countertop materials, laminate is one of the most hygienic, as it possesses anti-stain and anti-fungal properties. What\u2019s more, the plastic coating that seals off the MDF core makes it difficult for bacteria to hide and multiply, so there\u2019s no need to worry about pesky germs after you\u2019ve wiped down your countertops!<\/p>\n

You have no shortage of options to choose from<\/h2>\n

One of the best things about laminate kitchen worktops is the sheer number of options for colours, patterns, thicknesses and finishes, especially here at Savoy Timber. From high-gloss worktops to matt worktops, we have a multitude of wood-style, marble-effect and sparkle options on our site that\u2019ll give you all the beauty of solid timber and stone without the commitment, upkeep or high price tag.<\/p>\n

Our laminate kitchen worktops can even be installed on a DIY basis if you prefer a more hands-on approach to their kitchen makeover. Simply submit your kitchen measurements to us, and we\u2019ll provide you with a bespoke, carefully packaged worktop that\u2019s been cut-to-size, all ready for DIY installation!<\/p>\n

Low maintenance<\/h2>\n

Last and certainly not least, our fifth benefit of laminate kitchen worktops<\/strong><\/a> is the lack of maintenance they require. All you need to do is keep the surface clean by giving them a wipe-down after every use, and that’s about it! The plastic coating on laminate makes for quick and easy cleaning, so it’ll never take too long to have them sparkling. All you have to do is ensure that no food or liquid is left on the surface for long periods to reduce the chances of staining, and your worktops will look beautiful for years to come.<\/p>\n
