Here at Lake Cabinet & Flooring we have been custom making laminate tops for over 60 years.   Laminate tops are constructed by applying a high-pressure plastic laminate to a particle board sub-straight.  Generally speaking, laminate tops are inexpensive when compared to other types of counters. They resist stains fairly well and have an average life span of ten to fifteen years.    Today’s laminates are available in upgraded finishes and edge treatments that significantly add to the aesthetic beauty of the counter at a lower cost than stones and solid surface tops.  To see some of the latest patterns, finishes and edge options you can visit one of our most popular brands here. www.wilsonart.com/laminate-surfaces
