Our Installation Process
 

Is quartz a good choice for a London kitchen?
 

Quartz is well suited to the demands of London home life. Its non-porous surface, scratch resistance, and low-maintenance requirements make it particularly practical for kitchens that are used intensively. Its aesthetic versatility means it translates well across the full spectrum of London interior styles, from sleek modern apartments to period townhouses.

Do you supply and install quartz worktops across all London boroughs?
 

We cover the full extent of Greater London, including Wandsworth, Lambeth, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Hounslow, Ealing, Merton, Sutton, Croydon, Bromley, Lewisham, Greenwich, Bexley, Redbridge, Waltham Forest, Enfield, Barnet, Harrow, and Hillingdon. If you're uncertain whether we cover your area, please get in touch.

What is the lead time for quartz worktops supplied to London?
 

Lead times vary depending on the material selected and the complexity of the project, but, as a general guide, most installations are completed within one to two weeks of the template visit. Our in-house fabrication facility in Kent means we are not dependent on third-party manufacturers for cutting and finishing, which helps us maintain reliable turnaround times.

How does the installation process work?
 

Once you've chosen your material and confirmed your order, we'll arrange a convenient time to visit your property and carry out a laser template of the exact dimensions required. Your worktop is then fabricated at our facility in Staplehurst before our installation team returns to fit it. Most kitchen installations are completed in a single day.

Does quartz need to be sealed?
 

No. One of quartz's key practical advantages over natural stone is that it is non-porous and requires no sealing, either at installation or as part of ongoing maintenance. This also means it is naturally resistant to staining from liquids such as wine, coffee, and cooking oils.
 

How do I care for a quartz worktop?
 

Day-to-day cleaning requires nothing more than warm soapy water and a soft cloth. For tougher marks, a non-abrasive household cleaner will suffice. Avoid prolonged exposure to very high heat and always use a trivet or pan stand rather than placing hot cookware directly on the surface.
 

Can quartz worktops be cut around a sink, hob, or tap hole?

Yes, our CNC fabrication equipment allows us to produce precise cutouts for undermount and inset sinks, hobs of all shapes and configurations, and tap holes. If you have a particularly complex or non-standard layout, our team is experienced in handling bespoke briefs. Bring your plans to our showroom or send them to us in advance and we'll advise accordingly.

Is quartz better than granite for a kitchen worktop?

It depends on your priorities. Quartz offers greater consistency of appearance, requires no sealing, and is generally easier to maintain. Granite is a natural stone, which means every slab is unique — many value its character and the depth of its natural patterning. Both are extremely durable. Our team is happy to walk you through the differences in the context of your specific project.
