Your project
The Right Surface Depends on the Whole Specification
Compare the worktop with cabinet doors, sink, hob and how the kitchen is used. Material, thickness, joins, edges and cut-outs influence both appearance and fitting. A sample helps with colour and texture, while the supplier’s care guidance helps you understand day-to-day upkeep.

Worktop Options to Discuss
Each part is discussed and explained before you make a decision.
✓✓Solid wood
Timber brings natural variation and warmth. Ask about sealing, routine care, water near sinks and how the surface may change with use.
✓Quartz and solid surfaces
Quartz and other engineered or solid surfaces vary by product. Confirm the exact composition, care, templating and fitting requirements with the supplier.
✓Natural or specialist stone
Stone and specialist surfaces have material-specific appearance and maintenance needs. Confirm product availability, suitability, templating and warranties for the selected slab.
Practical choices
Questions to Ask Before Choosing
Ask which product and finish the quotation specifies, how the surface is measured, and whether the price includes templating, delivery, cut-outs, upstands, joins and installation.
Confirm the care and repair guidance for the actual material. Heat, spills, abrasive cleaners and standing water can affect surfaces differently; use the supplier’s instructions.
This page covers surfaces within a planned kitchen project. Ask the team whether a standalone replacement or a particular named product is available before assuming it is included.
