Does anyone know where I can find some smaller pieces of white laminate? I have a client that wants to put laminate backsplashes on his vanities and I don't really want to buy a full sheet. The dimensions I'm looking for are 48"x12" and 36"x12". Any suggestions would be great. |

Several here have had success with seeking out damaged pieces at Lowes or Home Depot, especially when they don't need a full sheet. They'll typically mark it down from ~$45 to ~$20 if the corner is broken off. Besides, then you can use the rest of the sheet in the shop and can still pass the savings on to your client!

Thanks for the idea, but the HD I checked didn't have any white lam and only a few sheets of other colors. | |

I stopped by the new Lowes near the Asheville airport this afternoon to check on a few items I needed and as is my normal routine, I checked the laminate rack to see if there were any markdowns. Lo and behold, I found three perfect 4'x8' sheets of "Natural Canvas" Formica marked down to $18.59 per sheet. Got one. Two left for the next guy.

Ed,
Try giving the Charlotte Habitat stores a call. The one in Greensboro had some last week real cheap. | |

Good find! Lowes and HD have some here in Charlotte, but no white  Someone posted about a find at the Habitat Re-Store so I checked ours, but still no luck. Guess I'll try checking with some of the local cab shops and see if they might have any. I wouldn't have thought it would be this difficult to find white laminate! | |

The Hickory Lowes had a sheet of broken white laminate in their store 3 days ago. I asked about the price and they said they would go down to $30 bucks. Just the corner was broken off. I did not buy it becasue I do not need it right now. You might want to call the store and check and see if they still have it.
