    Hey Silvercar,
    What was the name of the company that fitted your granite worktops? I’m looking to do this and would rather take a recommendation.
     Many thanks!

    I’d certainly be wary of stick or paint on coatings. In a flat I had years ago some paint on stuff had been tried on worktops and the tiles. The worktop was rough like sandpaper and you could chip off with fingers, the stuff on tiles in places peeled in sheets in others very well bonded

    while granite is very nice, wood laminate worktops are cheap and long lasting(parents stuff is decades old)
