Quartz is man made stone and has the strength and durability of stone with many styles and finishes, from concrete to marble. Ceramic, sometimes referred to as sintered or porcelain worktops have the same characteristics as quartz but have the added advantage of extra heat resistant properties, so you can put things from the hob or oven directly on the surface. Natural Stone is gorgeous, it’s real and your worktop is totally unique. We have a special coating for protection so we can guarantee these for 15 years. There are some wonderfully dramatic choices as well as subtle hues of natural material.
