Next up, we uncover how to choose kitchen worktops at the stunning Martin Moore Muswell Hill Showroom so you know just what will work for your family's needs. 

As choosing a kitchen worktop is a crucial part of kitchen design, you'll need to be completely honest about how you and your family will use your worktops. 

Are you likely to take the time to look after it or do you want a low-maintenance option? Are you likely to put hot pans directly onto the worktop? Do you have young children that could give it a good bashing?

Once you have examined this and have found out each materials' various properties, you'll be well equipped to decide what'll work best.

  • If you know how, designing a kitchen island is a simple step-by-step process. Here are the key things you need to consider, according to our experts

So, put your feet up and get ready to get inspired by Roost episode 6:

In the sixth episode of Roost, we're giving away four Fiskars garden tool bundles worth £263.
