Porterhouse Walnut Laminate Worktop

Narrow strips of warm, medium brown walnut laid side by side like a butcher's block, in the Kronospan Perl finish. This wood effect laminate worktop comes in Finesse 38mm, or as 3m contract lengths in 38mm and 28mm. Every build is postformed, so the front edge is rounded and seamless.

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 Porterhouse Walnut, 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.

    What's a splashback?

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

    What it is

    A full-height panel in Porterhouse Walnut, 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

      It's double-sided: Crema Limestone is on the reverse, so you can choose which way round to fit it.

      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 Porterhouse Walnut 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.

            Read the full fitting guide

            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.

              Changed your mind? You have 14 days from delivery to return it unused, uncut and in its wrapping; we refund within 14 days of getting it back. Report any damage within 48 hours. Full returns policy.

              Care and cleaning

              Wipe along the strips with warm soapy water and dry the surface. There is no oiling or waxing to do. A trivet and chopping board keep the surface in good order.

              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.

              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.

              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.

              • 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

              • Walnut strips in a butcher-block layout

                The swatch shows long, narrow staves in tones from light caramel to deeper walnut brown, with fine grain in each. It reads as a traditional block surface, warm and varied.

              • Perl finish

                Finish PE is called Perl. The laminate resists stains and everyday scratches, and it never needs the regular oiling that a real butcher-block top demands.

              • Three builds, one decor

                Choose Finesse 38mm postformed (3mm radius), 3m contract 38mm or 3m contract 28mm (6mm radius). Crema Limestone (K209RS) is on the splashback reverse, and breakfast bars are made in this decor.

              A butcher-block look for traditional kitchens

              Porterhouse Walnut suits classic and farmhouse kitchens that want a warm timber top. Cream, sage, dark green and navy cabinets all look good against it, and so do brass or black iron handles. The 3m contract lengths suit rentals and utility rooms, where the thinner 28mm option lightens a short run. Crema Limestone behind it gives a neutral stone wall.

              See the 3m contract range

              How to fit

              Fitting Porterhouse Walnut

              Porterhouse Walnut has strips that run along the board, so keep that direction constant. The Finesse board has a 3mm rounded edge and the 3m contract boards have a 6mm radius, so check which you hold before you cut.

              Questions about Porterhouse Walnut

              Can’t find your answer? Contact our worktop team.

              0330 000 0000Email us
              Is Porterhouse Walnut real walnut?

              No. It is a printed decor on high-pressure laminate over a chipboard core. It reproduces butcher-block strips in walnut tones without the oiling real timber needs.

              How do the 3m contract builds differ from Finesse?

              These are 3050mm lengths in the studio Contract range, as 38mm postformed or 28mm postformed with a 6mm radius edge. A 3050 x 900mm bar is listed for the 38mm board.

              Which is thicker, Finesse or contract?

              Finesse is 38mm. The contract range is also 38mm, with a thinner 28mm choice. The 28mm board gives a lighter edge on a short run.

              What sizes does the Finesse version come in?

              Finesse worktops are 3000 and 4100mm long by 600mm deep. Seating bars measure 665mm or 900mm front to back. All have a 3mm radius front edge.

              Which decor backs the Porterhouse splashback?

              Crema Limestone, code K209RS, a neutral stone decor. The splashback is 4100 x 640 x 10mm, and a 3000 x 600 x 6mm size is also listed.

              Can I fit an inset hob or sink?

              Yes, an inset hob or sink works in laminate. Seal every raw edge of the cut-out with silicone or the matching strip. Undermount sinks are not suitable.
