Join in kitchen worktop

[mrbg07546]

we have a u shape kitchen and or carpenter is about to do the worktop. It's a u sharpe kitchen and the long side is 4.45 meteres he says as we have 3m worktops it won't look good as their will be a extra joins. What are people's thoughts on this? Should I really go out my way to source from another supplier?

Yes. Especially if the carpenter is as good as your plasterer, plumber, and tiler.

... or the bricklayer, electrician, ...

I recently fitted our own kitchen and have seen worktops in 4m length, but didn't come across anything longer than that.

Expensive this building business...

You wont' need 4.45m length though, you'll need 4.45m-.6 (+ the joint) or 4.45m- 2x(.6 (+ the joint)) as long as your other sides are less than 4m (or 3m which you already have)

 

[mrbg07546]

That gives us 3.3 meteres
Shame!

Ah, of course, it's a U, which needs joints in any case.
