Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Mar 30, 2010 12:27 pm Our kitchen was modernised a few years back and is still in good condition. The only thing is, we hate the colour of the benchtop. I am having a lot of trouble sourcing just a benchtop and most places stop wanting to talk to us when they realise that's all we are after . I would need delivery, if possible, as our little car can't fit a 3.1 metre long benchtop. I'm just after laminex diamond gloss. Does anyone have any suggestions, websites or know of any companies in the Brisbane area who are happy to just supply the benchtop at a reasonable rate? Thanks. Re: Where can I get just a benchtop? 2Mar 30, 2010 1:42 pm What about a local handyman to come measure up & fit it for you? He would go to a laminate place and order, make the top then fit it I was originally thinking of going to a caeser stone place & they would cut the stone but you still have to have a cabinet maker to fit it etc. sorry, not much help good luck Jazz Life is like a lolly, suck it and see Re: Where can I get just a benchtop? 3Mar 30, 2010 1:54 pm If you're handy and think you can measure and fit it then contact Laminex direct - I *think* they may deal directly with the public. Otherwise you could try a cabinet maker - may be hard to find someone to take on such a little job so if you have no luck than a handyman would be your next bet. With stone, you would need a stonemason to fit it and possibly a cabinet maker to make subtrates if needed.

Re: Where can I get just a benchtop? 5Mar 30, 2010 7:29 pm There should be kitchen/cabinet makers that can do this for you... we just had ours re-done - the guy is actually a cabinet maker and used to install (well still does) full kitchens... but he has said of late people are tending more to just update their benchtops - he said for every 7 benchtops he installs only 1 kitchen!!! It's a shame you're not in Melbourne I would have recommended him, my mum and aunty have both used him as well and were very happy with the price and quality of work Sleven Moved into our Atlantique MkII 36 by Carlisle Homes I think the proposal that a supply and demand curve are a natural law are well exaggerated.
