When my mum got a post-formed laminate worktop the fitter did a great job of the joints using a worktop jig, bolts etc. I think it's called a butt and scribe joint. I've just had a square edged laminate worktops fitted and was told it wouldn't be necessary, instead he's just put them edge to edge and battened them together from below. I'm disappointed - the join is so obvious whereas my mum's is like a hairline join.
The guy who did it is a chippie who fitted all the units together from flat pack but I'm thinking my kitchen fitter should have put a specialist on the worktop because it seems to need a specialised skill.
Anyone got any thoughts on whether square-edged workstops should have butt and scribe joints?
Thanks
