Which scottish B&Q/Homebase/other sells worktop offcuts...

[monthefish]

I call upon the help of my Scottish brothers on PH!!

Strange query, but I seem to recall being in a B&Q (or Homebase perhaps) somewhere in Scotland that sells worktop offcuts.......


.........but I can't remember which city/town I was in!!



Can anyone help?

There's a kitchen place in Dundee usually has a stock of offcuts.

The one at Parkhead Forge does but they charge the going rate ie whatever the worktop is new £pm, then the same rate is applied to the offcut.

You can sometimes pick up scratched/damaged worktops in Ikea for a reduced price - the section by the tills near the returns dept.

The B&Q at hermiston gate(Edinburgh) has a large box of offcuts next to its cutting service. Got a 2m square piece of mdf for £1 from there.

This for a garage worktop?

No - just a wee 'dookit' in an en-suite (about 500mm wide). Currently got conti-board but want something a bit more substantial, ideally white.

No you wanted white but I have a peice of the shinny black marble effect you can have if any good to you

Thanks.

Kind offer but I actually have some of that myself. Really needs to be white/off-white.

What about a bit of nice white granite?? See Andy(flipflop) from surface options in Stirling. He is always really busy, but might beable to do something for you.
