California Walnut Luxury Laminate Worktops - Part of the 'Real Life Laminates' Collection

Walnut groves have added broad-leafed beauty to Californian hillsides since they were first farmed there in the 1700s. Inspired by the rich, dark hue and characterful texture of these ancient walnut trees, our worktop experts created California Walnut to add a classic timber of the American Wild West to the Real Life Laminate collection.

The California Walnut has a unique, timeless appearance that works well in both contemporary and traditional homes. This elegant and attractive worktop is easy to clean and highly water-resistant, with superior resilience to both impacts and abrasions, making it a low-maintenance option for refreshing your kitchen without forgoing a delicate appearance.

Part of our Real Life Laminates Collection, the California Walnut joins a range of laminate worktops hand-picked by our worktop experts for their true-to-life look and feel. A three-year guarantee backs this collection as standard to assure you of its durability.

All our laminate worktops are finished with high-quality polypropylene edging to complete the look. Don't forget that the worktop will come with certain (not all) edges already finished depending on the specific size of the worktop you choose. If you are cutting the worktop and leaving exposed edges you want to be sealed, you can purchase extra matching edging. Matching upstands and breakfast bars are also available.

So pleased with the bespoke worktop for our new breakfast bar. Size exactly as specified, finish, colour and quality superb. Also the offcut was included so we can use elsewhere. Easy sizing on the web site. Highly recommended.

Product as described and very good quality. Short edges were covered with same material as the main top and long edge. This worktop is no lightweight, be prepared to to have help lifting and carrying.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up Frequently Asked Questions
keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up What are the benefits of laminate worktops?

Laminate worktops are a fantastic choice for your kitchen! They’re easy to install with no specialist tools needed, making your DIY project a breeze. Plus, they’re budget-friendly and come in a stunning range of decors and sizes to fit any style. Durable and hard-wearing, laminate worktops can handle the demands of daily life while looking great.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up Can I order a laminate worktop sample?

Yes, you can! We offer samples for all our worktops so you can see and feel the quality before making a decision. You can order your samples here and start envisioning your new worktop.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up Can you customise my laminate worktop?

Absolutely! Our customisation service covers everything from cutting to size, creating sink or appliance cutouts, edging, joining, and more. Find out all the details and get started on your tailored worktop by visiting our customisation services page.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up Do I need extra edging strips?

Some of our laminate worktops come with additional edging included. To check if your chosen worktop has extra edging strips supplied, simply refer to the specification table for your worktop.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up What’s the maximum unsupported overhang on a laminate worktop?

The maximum unsupported overhang for a laminate worktop is 200mm. This is perfect for a small breakfast bar overhang, giving you extra space without compromising stability.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up Can you fit my worktop?

While we don’t offer fitting services, we highly recommend using a registered tradesperson for your worktop installation. A professional will ensure that your worktop is fitted accurately and securely, giving you peace of mind and a perfect finish. Look for tradespeople in your area with good reviews and credentials for a smooth installation process.

keyboard_arrow_down keyboard_arrow_up How can I fix a bowed laminate worktop?

  1. Assess the Cause: Determine why the worktop has bowed. Common reasons include changes in humidity or moisture content, improper installation, incorrect storage, or structural issues.
  2. Evaluate Damage: Check if the bowing is minor or severe. Minor bowing might be less of an issue and easier to correct.
  3. Avoid Cutting or Installing: If the worktop is significantly bowed, avoid cutting or installing it. Contact us to see if it can be replaced.
  4. Reduce Moisture Exposure: If the bowing is due to moisture, try to reduce exposure to moisture sources. Ensure there are no leaks from nearby sinks or taps.
  5. Weight Distribution: Place heavy objects or weights evenly across the bowed area to gradually encourage it to flatten out. Use something like heavy books or bags of flour for a couple of days.
  6. Flip the Worktop: If the worktop is not fixed in place permanently, flipping it over might reveal a flatter surface on the other side.
  7. Consult a Professional: If the bowing persists or is severe, consult a professional carpenter or installer. They can assess the situation and provide expert advice on how to fix or replace the worktop if necessary.
  8. Prevent Future Issues: Once the worktop is corrected, take steps to prevent future bowing by ensuring proper installation, oiling, and maintenance.

Depending on the severity and cause of the bowing, one or more of these steps should help alleviate the issue. If you're unsure or uncomfortable tackling this yourself, it's always wise to seek professional assistance.
