Laminate FAQs

Questions we hear about laminate.

Does laminate look cheap?

Not anymore. Today's laminate includes realistic stone, concrete and timber finishes that look great for a fraction of the price of stone.

Can laminate handle hot pans?

No, always use a trivet or board. Direct heat from pots, pans or trays can scorch or blister a laminate surface.

Is laminate waterproof?

The surface resists water, but joins and edges can let moisture in over time, so it's best to wipe up spills promptly and avoid standing water at seams.
