Laminate countertops can be repaired
and resurfaced at a fraction of the cost of replacement. The cracks
and burns are repaired with a special plastic filler, then sanded
smooth to fill in any rough or damaged areas. The counter is then
sprayed with a special topcoat, which gives the appearance and
durability of a new laminate countertop. The process usually takes
four to five hours, and your kitchen will be ready to use the
next day.
