Before we quote any of the vanity tops in Bounds Green we want to know what the kitchen actually is, because the answer changes more than the price. Mostly interwar semis and Victorian terraces where the kitchen has been extended out a modest 2m to 3m rather than the full side return, so you get a squarer room with a run on two walls and a small peninsula. Solid family layouts, not showpieces. You can leave that to us. What we need from you is a rough idea of the size and a date that suits.
The rear wall of the addition carries both the back door and the window, which leaves very little unbroken wall for a run to sit against. For a vanity the length is rarely the argument, because it is the depth and what has to be drilled through it that set the piece. A vanity top is a small piece with a great deal drilled through it.
The rear extension is frequently original rather than added, which means it is solidly built and just as far out of square as the rest of the house. Where a bedroom has been divided to make a bathroom the window sits off centre to the new room and the vanity ends up under it, which puts the window board in the order rather than outside it. A bathroom over a kitchen has its waste run already decided.
What the kitchens here mostly sit in is Victorian terrace, 1930s semi and post-war low-rise block. They were built to different tolerances, and the stone has to absorb that.
