Where to buy Formica Laminate in the Seattle area

[Ben Grefe]

I need to rebuild some cabinets for my Airstream trailer and to make them match I need a sheet of white laminate to veneer the plywood with. I remember in the past that Home Depot or similar stores would sell sheets of Laminate, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. You can buy some premade Formica counter top pieces, but that’s it.

Does anybody have an idea where I could buy a sheet of this stuff locally?

[John TenEyck]

Pretty sure you can order it through Home Depot and Lowes, with free delivery.

When I have purchased laminate, I have found it locally in a flooring supply store.

Check with cabinet shops.

Yep, that's where I order it usually: https://www.homedepot.com/b/Search/N-5yc1vZc3b5/Ntk-Extended/Ntt-formica+laminate+sheet?Ntx=mode+matchpartialmax&NCNI-5

Yes, I just bought some for a router table top from Home Depot. Go to the cabinets area and they can order it for you in any color made, and it only took a few days to arrive in my case. It seems nobody sells it over the counter any more. I’m not in your area, but I looked all over in my area and nobody sold it in stock.

With so many colors, it's understandable that no one stocks it, except maybe in white. Besides, how many people except tradesmen who generally have their own sources buy laminate these days?

I see they have several distributors in Seattle. The one by me in Tempe, Arizona sells a zillion different colors by the sheet, and they have them in stock.

Even when it was stocked at the Orange 'borg years ago, it was only black, white and one lighter mottled combination color to my memory. It was often only 2x4 sheets, too. I agree that it doesn't make much sense to stock something that only occasionally sells and when folks like and prefer to be able to select from a variety of colors and patterns. In many case, folks who want laminate counters will buy them pre-made, too, and just cut holes for things like sinks. Not many folks like to lay their own laminate these days; it was a lot more common decades ago I think.

I always order my laminate from the orange store and have it ship to store. If the box is beat up, I make them unbox it for my inspection prior to accepting it. Still make laminate counters fairly frequently.

I do the same as Lisa. I order online, with free shipping to closest HD. Shipping is usually only a couple of days. Never has an issue with damage.

I just bought some for a couple shop projects (4x8 matte black). In my area (Colorado) it was was 10 or 15 bucks to ship for some reason (not outrageous, just not free). Since HD is on the way home from work, I opted for the ship to the store for free.

To the OPs question though, HD has it and a few others mentioned flooring stores, which is a good suggestion if you need something unique.

Maybe you pay less for the product out there to make up the difference. It's free shipping at both Lowes and HD in my area:

Mine was 61.92 two weeks ago :eek: Just checked now and it's the same as you show and free shipping to my home LOL. Go figure.

[Jim Becker]

Free shipping to home from the Home Centers is definitely both product and geography related and it's not unusual to be unavailable while free ship to store is for the same product. It's a matter of choosing either ship to home or ship to store based on that as well as convenience or circumstance. I've used both.

cabinetParts also sells laminate sheets.

My niece is now working for Lowes. Part of her job is calling people who bought custom order stuff and have not picked it up. Many commercial. buyers use Lowes ship to store as a free warehouse. Some stuff will sit over 30 days. They threaten to sell it. They do sell it after so long depending on how much room they have left.

I ended up just buying it at Home Depot and having it shipped to my house for free. I was hoping to look in person as I'm trying to match some existing, but thankfully it seems like what I got is plenty close (if not identical). Good thing I was trying to match white, not something weirder.
