micky.p. Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Does anyone know where i can buy 4m length worktops please?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Not quite - but Brico Depot go up to 3.60m. Maybe Leroy Merlin or Lapeyre would have longer ones.Just checked - Lapeyre online show sizes up to 3.00m and Leroy Merlin up to 3.15m (maybe possible to order specially?).

Chris Head Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I don't know what your budget is Mickey but why not try your local menuisier, they'll be able to make up what you want.Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Micky - whatever you do, don't say you don't want a wooden worktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I know what you mean, mate! From the other side of the room and wearing the wrong prescription glasses, ours look like granite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 micky, i have been fitting kitchens for 15 years and only worked for one company that supplied 4 metre worktops.(in uk). even with 3 metre tops could you not reposition your mitres ? will give you 3.6 metre run. how crucial is it to have 4 metres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Head Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 <<<nope, the wife wants glossy black worktops,>>>Wot, like genuine glossy French plastic worktops? Sounds enticing. Couldn't Ikea help you out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert the InfoGipsy Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 [quote user="micky.p."]nope, the wife wants glossy black worktops,i would love granit, but a bit out my price range.[/quote]I've known people get stuff like that from their local funeral mason. Supposed to be much cheaper than from a kitchen shop, but I can't talk from experience.Another option would be cast in situe concrete with suitable colouring. It can polish up a treat and fit any shape. I've seen it done but never tried myself so I'm tempted to try a dummy run on a little test piece to see if it's viable for the kitchen Im planning.Either way you'll need nice, strong carcases.

micky.p. Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 hello steve. , yes i do need a 4m length , as the kitchen is 5.2.In Nottingham i could get 4 and 6m lengths , but not planning a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastines Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Just had a similar problem. Visited Resau Pro who do 4mtr worktops. The one we wanted was quoted at 130euros a METRE, and no,I'm not joking. In the end I had to go back to UK anyway so bought the same from T&P at £90 each for 4 mtrs. I think the problem lies in the fact that most French kitchens seem to have a smaller worktop area and a working kitchen table.Regards.5 mins St.Malo. www.ourinns.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 We got ours at Brico Depôt and they weren't that expensive - bog standard stuff. But they don't sell edging materials (metal) that fit their own worktops... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I don't think they go up to 4m long, though, Dick - not in my catalogue, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 micky, any chance of passing on the name of the company where you could get 6 metre worktops. dont get me wrong, i dont disbelieve you, but have got to see this product.i thought after so many years fitting kitchens i had seen everything there was to see in kitchen fitting.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I don't recall seeing 4m lengths - I think our longest was about 2½. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I had a 6 metre worktop in my old house from this companyhttp://www.kitchen-worktops-plus.co.uk/corian_kitchen_worktops.htmIt was very expensive though and not a DIY job.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJSLIV Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Lapayere who are the main suspect for this kind of thing do black marble up to 3 metres for 50 Euros per metre.http://www.lapeyre.fr/Lapeyre/pub.accueil.PreHomeController.do?event=show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
