Worktops, splashbacks, taps and sinks will be used all the time, so take the time to choose ones that are hardwearing and visually pleasing.
Worktop materials
The worktop or countertop is the main worksurface of your kitchen and its selection will need to take account of many factors including cost, scratch and stain resistance, heat resistance, durability and ease of cleaning.
Most common are laminate, manmade composites, solid wood, stone (marble, granite), concrete, metal and glass.
