A recent kitchen usually has its services boxed in and documented, so the cut-outs are planned from the survey rather than found during it. The batch is recorded against the order, so a later piece can still be matched to it.

Where a managing agent is involved, access and timing take longer to arrange than the work itself. We book realistically rather than optimistically. That is a survey question, and we answer it on the day.
Our quartz runs from £150 to £280 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 71 colours in the range. What moves the number is the cut list — joins, cut-outs and how the pieces nest into a slab — rather than the floor area of the room.

Questions
Quartz in Tower Hamlets
Can you replace a worktop in a new-build flat in Tower Hamlets?
Yes. Newer units are square and built to a module, which makes the template quick and the yield predictable. The thing to check is the carcass: we confirm at survey that the existing units will take a new top before anything is ordered.
Which worktop needs least maintenance in a rented property in Tower Hamlets?
The engineered and sintered surfaces, because neither needs sealing. Granite is porous to varying degrees and is sealed on installation, which then wants topping up over time — fine in an owner-occupied home, less realistic where nobody has been told to do it.
Do you cover the whole of Tower Hamlets?
Yes — 23 neighbourhoods across 5 postcode districts, Bethnal Green, Blackwall, Bow and Bow Common 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.
