TopShape

Causeway Laminate Worktop

Causeway is a laminate surface on a chipboard core with a decorative square edge, laminated on both sides. Choose a 40mm or 25mm board from the TopShape laminate worktops, or add a matching upstand and splashback for the wall.

Thickness and edge
Size

What's an upstand?

Upstand, 100mm highWorktop 100mm high 22mm thick Silicone bead 600mm deep worktop Wall

What it is

A 100mm-high strip in Causeway, the same decor as your worktop. It sits along the back edge of the worktop, against the wall.

Why you need one

Walls are rarely straight, so there's nearly always a gap between worktop and wall. An upstand covers it, stops water and crumbs getting down the back, and gives a neat finished line. It's the simplest, cheapest way to finish a worktop.

Sizes

    Most kitchens need one length per wall run.

    Fitting

    Cut it to length with a fine-tooth saw and bond it to the wall with grab adhesive. Run a bead of clear or matching silicone along the bottom edge, and finish any exposed ends with an end cap.

    Upstand or splashback?

    Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

    Read the full fitting guide

    What's a splashback?

    Splashbackupstand heightHob and oven 640mm high 10mm thick Worktop Wall

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Causeway, the same decor as your worktop, fixed to the wall behind the hob or sink.

    Why choose one

    One continuous wipe-clean surface with no grout lines, so there's nothing to stain or scrub between tiles. It protects the wall from splashes and cooking grease, and makes the worktop and wall look like one piece.

    Sizes

      Behind a hob

      Check the minimum clearance to a laminate panel in your hob's installation manual. Gas hobs usually need more space, or a heat-resistant panel behind the burners.

      Fitting

      Cut it to size and bond it to a flat, sound wall with panel adhesive. Seal the bottom edge to the worktop with silicone.

      Upstand or splashback?

      Choose an upstand if you're tiling above the worktop, or want the cheapest neat finish. Choose a splashback behind the hob or sink, or if you want no tiles at all. Lots of kitchens use both.

      What's an edging strip?

      BeforeCut end: barechipboard core AfterEdging strip,45mm wide, coversa cut end

      What it is

      A strip in Causeway that covers the cut end of the worktop. It comes pre-glued, or is fixed with contact adhesive.

      When you need it

      Whenever a cut end is on show: at the end of a run, on a breakfast bar, or anywhere you've cut a length down.

      Sizes

        Fitting

        1. Glue Spread contact adhesive on the end and the strip, or warm a pre-glued strip.
        2. Press Press it on firmly from the middle outwards, with a block of wood.
        3. Trim and file Trim the overhang with a sharp blade, then file the edges down at a slight angle.

        What are joining strips?

        Corner strip (L-shape)Straight stripSeen from above Aluminium strip38mm worktop: use the38mm stripWorktopWorktop

        What it is

        An aluminium strip that joins two worktop lengths without a router or jig. The web slips between the two ends and the cap covers the joint.

        Straight or corner

        Straight: joins two lengths in a line. Corner: makes an L-shaped join where two runs meet.

        Sizes

          Match the strip to your worktop's thickness: a 38mm strip for a 38mm worktop.

          The alternative

          A mason's mitre gives a seamless corner, but it needs a worktop jig and a router. See both options in our fitting guide.

          What are end caps?

          BeforeAfterExposed endEnd capScrewed over therounded profile Left end capRight end capYou, facing the worktopWall

          What it is

          An aluminium cap that finishes the exposed end of a postformed worktop, following its rounded front edge.

          Left or right?

          Stand facing the worktop. If the exposed end is on your left, you need a left end cap; if it's on your right, a right end cap.

          Sizes

            Match the cap to your worktop's thickness.

            Fitting

            Hold the cap against the end, drill small pilot holes and screw it on. A thin bead of silicone behind it keeps water out of the end.

            What's in the joint kit?

            3 connector boltsJoint sealant Seen from underneathBolts pull the joint tight;sealant keeps water out

            What's in it

            Three connector bolts and a tube of joint sealant: everything to hold one worktop joint together.

            What it's for

            The bolts sit in pockets cut underneath both worktops and pull the joint tight. The sealant goes on the joint faces first, so water can't get into the core.

            How many?

            One kit per worktop joint.

              Care and cleaning

              Causeway needs nothing more than a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Dry the board afterwards, especially around the sink. Avoid scourers and strong powders, which can scratch laminate.

              Which edge?

              • Postformed: the laminate wraps a soft, rounded front. Classic and hard-wearing.
              • Square edge: a sharp, modern line with a matching edge strip.
              • Compact: 12mm solid board, slim and waterproof.
              More on edges and thickness

              Fitting in four steps

              • Measure, then cut face down with a fine-tooth blade.
              • Lay it on the units and screw up through the brackets.
              • Seal the cut edges, then fit the upstand and end caps.
              Read the full fitting guide

              How to measure

              • Measure each wall run along the back, in millimetres.
              • Add about 50mm to every run so you can trim to a clean fit.
              • In an L-shape, let the longest run go into the corner.
              Full measuring guide

              Size guide

              • Worktops come 3000mm or 4100mm long and 600mm deep.
              • Breakfast bars are deeper: 665mm or 900mm, for islands and overhangs.
              • Buy a length that covers your run, then cut it to fit.

              Why you’ll love it

              • A decor to judge by its photos

                The name Causeway does not describe a colour or pattern, so we leave that to the product images. What we can say is that it shares the full TopShape square edge range.

              • What the laminate surface gives you

                A high-pressure laminate face covers the chipboard core. It wipes clean with warm soapy water, resists everyday stains and scratches, and never needs sealing. Keep a trivet by the hob.

              • Four pieces to finish the room

                The matching set has an upstand at 3600 x 125 x 18mm, a splashback at 3000 x 1200 x 8mm, a 3600 x 350mm utility panel and a 5000mm edging roll.

              Choosing between 40mm and 25mm Causeway

              The thicker board gives a bold front edge and suits long runs and islands. The 25mm board is lighter to handle and gives a neat, slim line for secondary runs or utility rooms. Both come with a flat square edge laminated on both sides, so you can mix them in different rooms and keep one decor throughout. Fitters can plan the whole job around a single set of matching pieces.

              How to fit

              Fitting Causeway

              Causeway boards are 4000mm long, with a square edge in 40mm or 25mm. Check the pattern direction on your boards when they arrive, then plan the run so the decor reads the same way across every join.

              0330 000 0000Email us
              What colour is Causeway?

              The decor name does not state a colour or pattern, so use the product photos to judge it. All the practical details on this page apply regardless.

              Which sizes can I order?

              Boards are 4000mm long, 650mm or 900mm deep, and 40mm or 25mm thick. All four combinations have a square edge laminated on both sides.

              Is there a utility panel in the same decor?

              Yes. The utility panel measures 3600 x 350 x 18mm. It suits shelving, cupboard sides and tidy finishes in a utility room or boot room.

              Can I use Causeway for a breakfast-bar style overhang?

              The 900mm board gives space for an overhang on an island or peninsula. Support it properly with brackets or legs suited to the thickness you pick.

              What closes off a cut end on this board?

              Iron or glue the matching edging roll onto the end and file it flush. This hides the chipboard core and seals it from moisture.

              Does this decor work with an undermount sink?

              No. Laminate on chipboard is not suitable for undermount sinks. An inset sink is the right choice, with the cut-out edges sealed carefully.
