In a block the carry is the whole problem, and sintered is the only one of the three that can be specified thin enough to change the answer. One survey, one cut list, one fit.

A breakfast overhang in a thin panel needs continuous support rather than brackets at intervals. We specify what it needs before the joinery is built. The thickness is chosen for the room, not from the brochure.
Our sintered stone runs from £250 to £300 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 65 colours in the range. On rooms this size the number is set by slab yield: how many pieces come out of a slab, and whether an island needs a second one. Square metreage is the last thing we work out, not the first.

Where most of the catalogue sits, supply only. Fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top.

We cannot post sintered stone offcuts, so samples are the quartz range only. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.
Questions
Dekton & sintered in City of Westminster
Can you fit sintered stone worktops in a flat in City of Westminster?
Yes, and it is most of what we do here. The constraint is the route rather than the room: we measure the stairwell, the lift and the turns at survey, and size the pieces to what will physically go up. Where a full-length piece will not make the turn, the join is planned into the design rather than improvised on the day.
How is an island priced in sintered stone?
By yield, not by area. The question is how the pieces nest into a slab and whether the island needs a second one, and we can usually answer it at survey. A rate per square metre would not tell you which side of that line you fall.
Do you cover the whole of City of Westminster?
Yes — 22 neighbourhoods across 22 postcode districts, Bayswater, Belgravia, Church Street and Harrow Road among them. There is nothing to visit: the template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there by the same team.

The housing does not change, so most of what is on this page still applies. What changes is weight, machining and maintenance.
