HI Folks Looking to re-finish the window-cill that sits on top of the dwarf wall in our 'sunroom' (lean-to conservatory with slated roof). Cill is a c-shape - about 2ft x 24ft x 12ft and 14" wide - two right-angle joints.
Current 'cill' is a rather nasty slate tile - looks scruffy, hard to keep clean & isn't wide enough.
Main requirements are to look presentable, be easy to clean, and be OK for sitting pot plants on (not that sort! ).
Plan so far is 18mm ply (glued down), topped with laminate flooring and edged with a timber moulding. Could just go with the 18mm ply and varnish it - but can't think of a tidy way to hide the butt-joints / right-angle joints in the 18mm ply - hence the idea of using the click-together laminate.
I do understand that laminate flooring doesn't like to be soaked in water - so some care would be necessary in plant-watering. How would you go about making the 90-degree joints in the laminate as unobtrusively as possible ?
Any other suggestions ? We've thought about tiles but it's not really going to offer a great improvement...
Thanks Adrian
