Clapham Junction worktops
The kitchens we meet in Clapham Junction
The worktop jobs we quote in Clapham Junction are priced off what is actually behind the units rather than off a floor plan. Flats over the shops on the main roads have tight galley kitchens of 2m to 2.4m with the appliances stacked, while the terraces climbing St John's Hill get rear kitchen-diners with a peninsula. Regeneration blocks near the station are modern carcass kitchens with straight runs. If you are not sure which of those describes your kitchen, that is normal, and it is exactly what the template visit settles.
A stub wall divides the kitchen from the back lobby, and it rarely stayed where the original drawing put it. The surface is where the money actually moves: across the 185 surfaces we list the median is £224 per square metre, and half of them sit between £165 and £300. Porous or not porous is the fork in the road on day one.
The kitchen is usually at the back over the rear of the shop, which makes it the furthest point from the street door. Coming off a laminate top changes the thickness at the front edge, and twenty millimetres reads closer to what the room is used to than thirty ever will. Movement needs length, and length is what these rooms have.
What we find behind the front doors here is Victorian terrace, Above-shop flat, Postwar estate block and 2010s regeneration apartment. They are not interchangeable, and a worktop finds the differences quickly.
