Kitchen Worktops: How to Choose the Right One

Bespoke kitchen worktops are where form and function come together. Compare the materials our designers recommend most.

Choosing a Worktop That Suits How You Cook

Your worktop is the hardest-working surface in the kitchen, so the right choice depends on how you cook, clean and live. Quartz is hard-wearing and low maintenance, ceramic resists heat and scratches, natural stone brings unique character and wood adds warmth. Your kitchen designer will help you weigh durability, care and look.

How Do You Know Which Worktop is Right?

Before falling in love with a finish, ask how your kitchen will be used. Do you cook every day, bake, or entertain often? Are there young children or pets? Do you want a surface that looks pristine for years, or one that develops character with age?

The answers point you towards the right material. A busy family kitchen suits quartz or ceramic; a quieter kitchen can carry marble or wood. Visit a showroom to see and touch the options, and your designer will help you match the worktop to the way you live.

Quartz Worktops: The Reliable All-Rounder

Engineered for modern living, quartz is a top choice for homeowners who want a beautiful surface with little upkeep. It is non-porous, so it resists stains and does not need sealing, and it comes in a huge range of colours and veined effects, from crisp whites to marble-look Calacattas.

We offer quartz from Silestone, Caesarstone and our own Harvey Jones range in 20mm and 30mm thicknesses. It suits busy family kitchens, islands and anyone who wants the look of stone without the maintenance.
