Worktops & Islands

Surfaces made to last

  • Close-up of a modern white kitchen island with a marble-effect quartz worktop, a chrome spring-neck tap, and a pop-up electrical socket.

    Quartz

    A heard wearing non-porous material. A quartz work top is made from stone, often using 93% quartz and other resins and polymers to create a surface that is unique to you. Quartz is completely water resistant making it a perfect choice for kitchen. From wines to juice and water any spills can be easily wiped and cleaned.

  • Close-up of a wooden table or furniture with a smooth surface and visible wood grain details.

    Solid Wood

    Bringing warmth and character to any kitchen, no two solid wood worktops are ever the same. Unlike man-made surfaces, wood ages beautifully — darkening and developing depth over time. It's durable, sound-absorbing for a quieter kitchen, and easy to repair through sanding and resealing. With correct sealing it's also water resistant, offering a more affordable alternative to quartz or granite.

    Laminate

    The most cost-effective worktop option, laminate still delivers real durability — resistant to scratches, stains and short bursts of heat, even in busy family kitchens. If damaged, it's simple and affordable to repair or replace entirely. As a man-made material, it also comes in a wide range of colours, making it easy to find the perfect match for your kitchen.

Kitchen Islands

The kitchen island isn't just where dinner gets made — it's where the day happens, from morning coffee to someone chopping veg while everyone else talks over them. A waterfall island in quartz or marble makes a striking centrepiece, and features like built-in appliances and considered lighting make sure it works as hard as it looks.
