An Ultimate Guide to Kitchen Worktops

It’s hard to decide which kitchen worktopis right for you, the colour coding that you’ve chosen could make it a difficult choice because you don’t want clashing. There are different designs, colours, finishes that you can choose from but ultimately what goes best in your kitchen is up to you. Here are some popular choices within modern and traditional kitchens:

Wood

Wood has been popular in kitchens for a long, long time. There is so many types which can fit near enough any kitchen because of the array of colours. The advantages of wood is it can go into any shape and the fact it’s not that expensive helps too. It also works in both modern and traditional kitchens.

Granite

The polished finish brings a taste of elegance to your kitchen, mainly coming in darker colours but best in black. Similarly to wood, granite can be smoothed and rounded off to give a simplistic finish. It’s also very easy to clean. It’s for those on an eye with modern kitchen.

Acrylic

Making its mark on modern kitchens, acrylic has undergone a massive boost of popularity. The colours are usually vibrant and if you want it to be even more eye-catching then there is an opportunity to put a bit of sparkle on there. Another plus point is that the joints within the worktop will be seamless and flow forever.

Laminate

Laminate can be done yourself with old panels, it wouldn’t have been as popular if the colour of wood has varied. It also can be quite cheap by covering with a wax that will make it harder to mark and stain. The effect is the same as the wooden counters, the downside however is that it may not be able to take as much pressure as other worktops.
