Patch laminated kitchen cupboards
$200
Narrabundah ACT 2604, Australia
8th Oct 2025
The laminate on some of our kitchen cupboards has come off. I've patched it before using pieces of laminate taken from behind the microwave to ensure the same colour and pattern. However, the patching has come off again. There is still some laminate behind the microwave which can be taken and then re-stuck on to the missing places. There are about 6 places that need to be patched. The patching should be sturdy and long-lasting. See photos below of two places with laminate missing. We don't want to relaminate the whole kitchen.
