I’ve been around the block a few times now when it comes to renovation. I’ve also been around the block as someone who did some summer work for a construction company as I was putting myself through school.
Let’s be real. When it comes to counter tops in the bathroom and kitchens, you’ve got a handful of options, and they’ve all got their pros and cons. Marble: beautiful, costly, and easy to ruin with careless cleaning. Granite: beautiful, costly, durable, but you better be checking your home for radon. Quartz: Not bad, only moderately expensive, but not much character either. Tile? OMG the grout lines.
Laminate has always been considered the lowest option, and let’s face it, 30 years ago? There was a reason why. When we think laminate, we think of our Grandma’s battered surfaces and dated kitchens. Our Grandma’s counter tops were comfortable, functional, but screaming of retirement community (hardly something that we want to brag about when we’re keeping up with the neighbors).
The 2016 Formica® Laminate Residential collection, however, will open your eyes. You can have your beautiful, durable counter tops without breaking your budget or worrying about destroying them with the wrong type of cleaner.
Since 1913, Formica® Brand has provided surfacing inspired by real lives. Formica® Brand products are durable to withstand everyday messes and events, affordable to fit into family budgets, and beautiful to complement homes and styles of all kinds.
This stuff? It’s not yo grandma’s counter top.
