4. Benchtops<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A laminate benchtop is both beautiful and inexpensive. According to Oneflare, benchtops cost between $300 – $2,000 per square metre<\/a>. A laminate benchtop can be used to replace old, damaged benchtops using the existing fixtures or frames for far less than using natural stone or a reconstituted benchtop.

An acrylic surface is an excellent way to save money on a splashback makeover. They are inexpensive to buy and install and create a clean, modern appearance in your kitchen that you are sure to love. However, tiled splashbacks have the most resilient finish and are easy to clean. If your tiled splashback looks dated but still is in good condition, regrouting or simply repainting it can give it an attractive, affordable facelift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
