Kitchen worktops?? Where best to buy?

Hi

Finally bought my kitchen from B+Q but decided to get a worktop from elsewhere as I didn't like the laminate choices on offer.

Can anyone reccommend where I could get a good deal on laminate tops, I need 2x 3 metre lengths??

Based in Manchester area - Atlantic Timber is on my list to visit in Altrincham, does anyone else have any suggestions??

Thanks!

Try homebase: they have some good ones and if you wait for the ten percent day you will save a bit more. I am in the process of buying a kitchen from them that I will install myself, and they are as cheap as anyone plus you get vouchers back on whatever amount you spend.

The Ikea worktops look nice in the catalogue but I havent inspected them close-up!

Try Focus. When we were doing our kitchen recently they were the only people who had what we wanted in stock & slightly cheaper than B & Q.

IKEA solid worktops are good value for money if you want a solid wood top. Otherwise keep looking round and see if any timber merchants have any offers or will do a deal; or see if any of the sheds are having a sale.

Thanks for your help guys! Though the IKEA worktops are a funny size 610mm not 600mm Its soooo frustrating everything in IKEA is a different to everywherer else!

I've resorted to shopping at John Lewis!!
