An ideal worktop in the one, which can stand oil, hot pans, wine, coffee, sharp objects, and much more without causing a big hole in the pocket. Equally important is that it goes with the style of your kitchen and it is durable and strong enough to carry the weight. Below are some of the common worktop materials with their properties.

Granite

When you do not have much money constraints then a granite worktop is best for you. This material is known for its hardness and durability and can hold heats well. Even though Granite does not stain, it is a good idea to use a stone seal product every 6 months, which can help in preventing the formation of various stains on its surface. The cost of granite depends on various factors, like, finish, color, etc., which means that there are many options in the price range.

Stainless steel

This material is not for someone who wants his or her kitchen surface to be spotless. This material can get scratched easily, however, it is stain resistant and can be cleaned easily. Stainless steel is heat and acid resistant as well as waterproof.

Wood

A wood worktop will give a warm and chic appearance to your kitchen and the best part about this design is that it is compatible with most kitchen designs. With proper care and regular oiling, this material can last for many years. All you need to do is make sure that you do not chop vegetables on this worktop and keep hot pots away from it.

Laminate

Laminate might not be the first choice when it comes to choosing a worktop owing to its somewhat bad reputation; however, in the past some years this material has improved its image and the present varieties of this material are much more scratch proof. The best thing about this material is that it is available in different colors and patterns and it can even copy the appearance of other materials. The material can take up heat up to 180ºC and is resistant to various chemicals, and liquids.
