Quartz Worktops
Quartz worktops offer the perfect balance of durability and aesthetics, combining the benefits of an engineered material with the natural beauty of stone. Made from approximately 95% ground quartz and 5% polymer resins, they provide a consistent colour and structure throughout.
This makes quartz an ideal choice for kitchen worktops, as it is hygienic, easy to clean, and non-porous—helping to resist stains. It is also highly durable, with excellent heat and scratch resistance. Quartz can be cut, shaped, polished, and drilled to suit individual preferences and is available in a variety of thicknesses. With slab lengths exceeding 3 metres, it’s possible to achieve seamless worktop designs without visible joins, creating a sleek and uninterrupted finish.
Granite Worktops
Marble and granite are among the most luxurious natural stones for kitchen worktops, offering a timeless and elegant appeal. Both materials work beautifully in traditional Country and Shaker kitchens, as well as more contemporary designs. As natural products, no two slabs are ever identical, ensuring a unique and distinctive finish for your kitchen.
Polished granite worktops feature a glossy surface that enhances classic kitchen settings or makes a bold statement on a kitchen island. For a more modern look, honed granite has a matte, often textured finish, making it an excellent choice for contemporary spaces.
Sintered Stone Worktops
Sintered stone is made by applying very high pressure and temperature to the base compounds to produce a completely unique material. Best known by their brand names such as Dekton, Neolith and Lapitech, these materials are extremely durable. They also feature very high heat resistance, scratch resistance and UV resistance.
Designers love them because of their extraordinary surface patterns that range from looking like natural marble, to incredible industrial finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of quartz worktops?
Quartz worktops combine the durability of engineered stone with the elegance of natural patterns. They are non-porous, stain-resistant, and easy to clean, making them hygienic and low maintenance. Quartz is also heat and scratch-resistant, ensuring long-lasting functionality. With various thicknesses and jumbo sizes available, quartz worktops can provide seamless surfaces tailored to your kitchen’s design.
How are granite worktops different from quartz?
Granite worktops are made from natural stone, offering a unique and timeless aesthetic, as no two slabs are the same. They are ideal for traditional and contemporary styles but require regular sealing to maintain their non-porous properties. Quartz, on the other hand, is engineered, providing consistent patterns and colours while being inherently non-porous and more resistant to stains and scratches.
What is sintered stone, and why is it popular for worktops?
Sintered stone, known by brands like Dekton and Neolith, is a cutting-edge material created under extreme heat and pressure. Its durability is unmatched, featuring high resistance to heat, scratches, and UV rays. With designs mimicking marble or industrial textures, sintered stone offers a modern, stylish finish suitable for high-traffic kitchens.
Are laminate worktops a good alternative to natural stone?
Modern luxury laminates are a fantastic, budget-friendly alternative to natural stone. They mimic the look of materials like marble or wood and feature textured finishes, curves, and inset sinks for a bespoke appearance. Laminates are versatile and suitable for traditional, Shaker, or contemporary designs, offering quality without the premium cost.
What is the difference between polished and honed granite?
Polished granite has a shiny, reflective surface, ideal for traditional kitchens or striking island designs. Honed granite, in contrast, has a matte, textured finish, which lends itself to contemporary styles. Both finishes retain the timeless beauty and durability of natural granite, offering flexibility in design.
Is Corian a durable option for worktops?
Corian is a versatile and durable work surface made from acrylic resin and natural minerals. It is non-porous, hygienic, and seamless, with the ability to create custom shapes and integrated sinks. Its repairable nature makes it a long-lasting choice, perfect for both modern and traditional kitchen designs.
