Hi I am nearing the end of my renovation and realized that I have 2 tops by the bay window. Just leaving it like this - it's dusty, dirty and hard to clean. I asked my contractor for laminates for both the bay windows. He quoted me 1600 dollars just for laminates. I felt that he over quoted me. Need advise as to 1. Laminate is better or solid top is better? For the bay window? 2. Cost? thanks jazzy
