Choosing materials, islands and splashbacks
Which worktop material should you choose?
For quartz-specific colours, planning and care, see our quartz worktops in Darlington guide.
Compare quartz worktops, granite worktops, marble, quartzite and porcelain worktops against your preferred appearance, kitchen use, care requirements and budget. Ask about the actual product and finish you are considering; different surfaces do not have identical care or installation requirements.
Quartz offers a broad choice of manufactured colours and patterns. Granite, marble and quartzite are natural stones, so inspect the slab's variation rather than relying only on a small sample. Marble can etch from acidic spills. Porcelain offers another option for worktops and coordinated wall surfaces; edges, supports and fabrication details need planning for the chosen product.
Plan the whole kitchen surface together
Include islands, breakfast bars, waterfall ends, upstands and matching splashbacks in your drawings. Discuss the direction of veining, slab sizes, joins, seating overhangs and supports before ordering. Sink, tap and hob specifications affect cut-outs and clearances, so agree those details before final templating.
Replacing worktops on existing cabinets
Replacement worktops may be possible if the cabinets and supports are suitable. Send photographs of the existing kitchen and explain what will stay. Discuss removal arrangements, access, wall finishes and any plumbing or electrical work before fitting is agreed.

Kitchen Worktops Darlington — FAQs
- What kitchen worktops do you supply and install in Darlington?
- RH Stone Surfaces supplies, templates, fabricates and installs made-to-measure quartz, granite, marble, quartzite and porcelain worktops in Darlington. Include worktop runs, islands, breakfast bars, upstands, splashbacks and any waterfall ends in your plans so the layout and material can be considered together.
- How do I get a quotation for kitchen worktops in Darlington?
- Send kitchen plans or approximate measurements to sales@rhstonesurfaces.co.uk with your Darlington postcode, preferred material or colour, sink and hob details, and island or splashback requirements. Tell us the stage of the kitchen and your intended timetable. Price depends on the surface, slab requirements, dimensions, cut-outs, edges, joins and installation arrangements.
- When should I contact you if my kitchen units are already ordered?
- Contact RH Stone Surfaces during planning or once the cabinet layout is available. Final templating normally follows installation of the relevant units, which need to be level, secure and ready. Confirm the sink, hob and appliance specifications beforehand, and share your kitchen fitter’s schedule so templating and fitting can be coordinated. Ask the team to confirm current availability for your project.
- Can you replace the worktops without replacing my kitchen cabinets?
- Replacement worktops may be possible when existing cabinets and supports are suitable. Send photographs, measurements and your postcode, explaining which sink, hob and appliances will stay. Discuss removal arrangements, access, wall finishes and any plumbing or electrical work before installation is agreed.
- Can I buy worktops separately from my kitchen supplier?
- Yes. You can choose RH Stone Surfaces worktops while using a separate kitchen supplier or your own kitchen fitter. Share the cabinet drawings, sink and hob specifications and proposed timetable so material selection, cabinet readiness, final templating and fitting can be coordinated.
- Where is the showroom for Darlington customers?
- The RH Stone Surfaces showroom is at Elswick Way Industrial Estate, Newcastle Road, South Shields, NE34 0LW. Bring kitchen plans and cabinet or flooring samples to compare surfaces. Opening hours are Monday–Friday 9:00 am–4:30 pm and Saturday 10:00 am–2:00 pm; closed Sunday. Call 0191 454 5600 before travelling to check a particular surface.
- Who do you serve, and which areas around Darlington do you cover?
- We serve homeowners, kitchen fitters, trade customers and commercial clients in Darlington and surrounding areas, including Haughton, Newton Aycliffe, Bishop Auckland, Spennymoor, Ferryhill, Richmond and Barnard Castle. Supply the property postcode and any parking, stairs or access restrictions when enquiring.
- How should I care for a new stone kitchen worktop?
- Follow the care instructions for the actual material, product and finish you select. Some natural stones need sealing; marble can etch from acidic spills. Manufactured surfaces have their own guidance. Use suitable chopping boards and trivets, approved cleaners and prompt spill removal, and ask about maintenance before ordering rather than assuming every surface needs the same care.
