Roundshaw worktops

The buildings and streets around Roundshaw

The vanity tops in Roundshaw that go smoothly are the ones where somebody asked awkward questions about the room at the start. Built on the old Croydon Airport land and largely rebuilt since, so the housing is modern-estate standard: compact kitchens of around 2.7m in an open-plan or semi-open layout, with a washing machine in the run because there is no utility. Bring us the problem rather than the diagnosis. Working out what you have got is the first thing we do.

Walls and ceilings carry decades of thick emulsion over artex, and neither surface tells you where the true line is. A short piece carries an overflow, a waste and a sealant line, and any one of the three can spoil it. A cloakroom top and an en-suite top are one job at two sizes.

The chimney breast in the kitchen served a back boiler behind the living room fire, so the flue is a shared one and the breast is deeper than a fireplace would need. Bathrooms in these flats are compact and squarely built, and take a short vanity that comes out of almost any offcut. Older walls give a vanity nothing straight to sit against.

What the rooms sit inside, mostly, is 1970s estate housing, 1990s-2000s rebuilt estate housing, low-rise flats and housing association terrace. That mix is why two jobs on the same road can run completely differently.

The place

Why bathroom worktops in Roundshaw are their own job

A fit in Roundshaw is planned around the building it is going into, which is what the survey is for. Parking courts and pedestrian decks rather than roadside frontage, controlled bollards on some routes, and communal entrances to the flatted blocks with an intercom. With the washing machine in the worktop run the cut-outs sit close together, so the piece needs a support rail across the appliance gap or it will flex when the machine spins. None of this needs to be a drama. It needs somebody to measure it properly and write down what they found.

The money

What bathroom worktops cost in Roundshaw

In Roundshaw, 2% of households live in a converted or shared house: lower than 79% of the 723 areas we cover. Short lengths nest well and waste little, so the material line is usually the kindest part of a galley quote. The rate is £110 to £550 per square metre supply only, though what you buy is slabs rather than square metres, which is why the material line follows the yield and not the tape.

What Roundshaw asks for in bathroom worktops

A leaseholder paying for their own kitchen inside managed stock still needs the freeholder to consent, and that consent is about the building and the common parts rather than about the worktop. Where a committee signs the order, the finish is picked from a sample in a folder rather than from a slab in a yard, and the sample has to be honest about that. Quartz in a let bathroom, because nothing needs sealing.

This is commercial work rather than something the housing here generates. Domestically these streets ask for worktop replacement and worktop splashbacks & upstands. It runs through the same template, the same bench and the same fitters.

The building

The building, and what it does to the bathroom worktops

In this corner of the borough, building from before 1919 is scarce, so the runs sit against walls made to a tighter tolerance. A shallow top has nothing spare, so a bowed wall upstairs costs depth the basin was relying on. What is typical upstairs is still measured before it is cut.

Questions

Bathroom worktop questions in Roundshaw

01

Do you cover Roundshaw?

Yes, Roundshaw (SM6) is on the patch, worked on our south London run with South Beddington, Wallington and Waddon.

02

Why would bathroom worktops in Roundshaw be any different from anywhere else?

In Roundshaw, 7% of homes have been built since 2010, which is higher than 50% of the 723 areas we cover. Meters were moved out to a box on the flank wall on a later programme, and the cupboard they came out of is usually still standing in the corner. The service riser is boxed into a corner of the room, and the top is notched round it with a radiused internal corner rather than a square one.

03

What is the carry like in Roundshaw?

In Roundshaw, 30% of households have no car or van: lower than 65% of the 723 areas we cover. The barrier, the entry code and the estate rules decide when a van can get near the door, and none of that is negotiable on the day. Everything else for the room tends to land in the same week, so the landing is stacked with tiling, a shower screen and a boxed cistern before we get there.

04

What makes one job in Roundshaw dearer than the next?

A vanity costs what it costs because of how much is drilled and polished into a short piece, not because of the area of stone in it. In Roundshaw, 49% of homes are flats or maisonettes, lower than 55% of the 723 areas we cover.

05

What needs to be ready before you come to Roundshaw?

In Roundshaw, from the 1970s estate housing to the housing association terrace, the vanity unit needs to be fixed and level before we template, with the basin and tap on site. Have the boxing in its final finished form before the template, along with the fixed unit, the basin and the tap. Where the boxing stands proud of the finished wall the upstand behind it has to be broken into separate lengths, because one piece cannot pass it. A vanity has no depth to lose, so where a kitchen run would take a ten millimetre scribe without noticing, a shallow top cannot spare it.
