Your Sleeping Habits. Itâs no surprise that not getting enough quality sleep can affect how you feel after a meal, too. If youâre relaxed and full, your body may feel more like resting, especially if you didnât get enough sleep the night before.
DIY Hassle Alert. Living without countertops in a kitchen is not pleasant, so schedule a short turnaround time between removing the old and installing the new one. An installer will charge $833 to install a 15-foot straight section of good quality post-formed laminate countertop. This includes the labor and material. If you have some carpentry experience, you can buy the countertop and install it for $550, saving 34 percent.
Custom laminate countertops--with the laminate cut and glued to the base in a factory to custom specifications--cost $7-$30 per square foot, depending on the brand, color, finish and edge style. A typical kitchen with 30 square feet of countertop area costs $210-$900, not including professional installation.
