Kitchen worktops are an important part of the decision as they are highly visible and need to be easy to maintain and hardwearing. The range of styles, colours and materials is vast and your choice needs to be based on your budget, the overall effect you want to achieve and your lifestyle. It is possible to mix and match materials e.g. put granite where you are likely to be preparing food and setting down very hot pans and then laminate for the rest. You can use laminate worktops in the main areas and granite, Luxore or Zodiaq kitchen worktops for an Island unit or table.

Laminate kitchen worktops are available in lengths up to 5.5m long and in any width to suit your design requirements. We now offer a wide range of bespoke laminate kitchen worktops which are set to become the latest design requirement. These worktops consist of a high-pressure laminate surface bonded to a high-density particleboard core. They are available in thicknesses of 40mm, 60mm to 100mm thick worktop and have a wide range of patterns which can be combined with a selection of edges to create a true design masterpiece. They are a very cost effective method of obtaining an attractive, hardwearing surface. The colours and patterns available are generally based on natural materials and can provide a look from ultra modern to traditional.

Granite Kitchen worktops- Granite has been used throughout the centuries for building and decoration. It now provides modern kitchen worktops that provide years of durable service and that adds elegance and style. Granite is waterproof and stain resistant. Hot pans and spills pose no problem for granite while cleaning is done with a damp cloth. Granite can be formed into any shape and is an ideal material for under mounted and Belfast sinks. A large selection of colours can give a variety of looks, which will always enhance kitchens. The surface can be sealed to reduce its natural porosity. This needs to be replaced every four months after cleaning with Neutral Detergent. Acidic juices can stain granite so care is needed.


Corian Kitchen Worktops- Corian is a man made product created by Dupont. It is a natural mineral blended with acrylic resin to form a solid durable material, which can be shaped to any design requirement. The finish is continuous once it is installed by a specialist and includes sinks moulded into the surface. Minimal care is required to maintain its good looks and it is covered by a Dupont 10 year warranty.

Luxore - Luxore kitchen worktops are characterised by superior strength and durability. Building on its natural quartz core, it has exceptional strength and toughness, making it resistant to impact and difficult to scratch, chip, crack or dull. This durability means that with routine care it will retain ultra-smooth, lustrous looks for many years. Luxore kitchen worktops are available in a palette of exciting colours and tones, encompassing bold reds and blues, fashionable greys and browns and timeless pearls and blacks.

Zodiaq - Zodiaq kitchen worktops offer a wide range of colours, including hues that do not exist in natural stone such as intense reds, blues and greens, and pure white. The patented pigment-polymer technology used by DuPont to create this Zodiaq worktops colour range is a sublime example of the way nature can be enhanced by technology. It not only expands the creative potential of Zodiaq quartz worktops, but also ensures consistency of structure and tone, creating a cohesive look throughout a kitchen worktops installation.
