Replacing home interior laminates

8 months ago

last modified: 8 months ago

Hi! I'm buying a pre-owned 2BHK flat. The previous owner has chosen high-quality materials for the interiors and everything is in great condition. However, different parts were done at different times, and every room has a different colour and pattern of laminate!
***Would it be cheaper to have all the laminates removed and replaced in the same colour, or should I just redo the interiors altogether?***
There's a tv cabinet, book stand, modular kichen, crockery-cum-puja stand, two-person study unit, plus wardrobes and dressing tables in both rooms. And each of these is a different colour! The kitchen in particular is an ugly combination of bright purple and white. Some are glossy so I'm not sure they can be painted over, either.
Please advise.

Hi! Since the materials are high-quality and in great condition, it would be more cost-effective to remove and replace the laminates in a unified color rather than redoing the interiors completely. For the glossy surfaces, consult a professional about the feasibility of refinishing or covering them with new laminate. This approach will refresh the look without incurring the higher costs of a full renovation.

Given the diverse colors and patterns of the laminates, replacing them entirely would be expensive. Instead, consider repainting or refinishing key pieces, like the kitchen cabinets, to unify the look. Alternatively, embrace the variety by incorporating complementary colors and neutral tones in your decor. Consulting an interior designer can help create a cohesive design without the high cost of replacing all the laminates. This approach balances aesthetics with budget.

dlight76: Are these laminates "floors" or wardrobe parts (eg. you can purchase stand alone wardrobes that are made of laminate+particle board...Ikea is famous for this)? If it is flooring, there may be nothing you can do. I've had many, many painters ruin my cork floors by "cleaning" up with mineral spirits...took the finish right off of my flooring. This happens with some hardwood floors as well. This is a common complaint with paint/clean-up. Please contact the painters and ask what they used - and tell them about the problems with the laminate. There may not be a way to salvage the laminate...unless you replace it. It all depends on what the painters used and what the manufacturer states is the best option to restore shine. If the painters damaged the floor, they should be informed. Please post photos to show us what has happened. This is the best way for us to see what damage has been done.

Gauri As per the plan, you shall initially make a corridor near door entrance through some partitions PVC, and bring the TV cabinet bit more either way of door quite close to the seating area. Then you can have some spaces for artefacts at entrance adjoining wall. Check whether, crockery place could be replaced by Pooja room if possible, as kitchen looks good to me, size ways. Kids room - you can have a wall paper work of required theme behind study table, same way choose the best laminates for your query marvel kind of. Any further information, you can get back from us. Thank you.
