Wimbledon worktops

The buildings and streets around Wimbledon

Two kitchens a street apart in Wimbledon can turn bathroom worktop fitting into two quite different pieces of work, which is why nothing is priced from the doorstep. Around the Broadway and the streets running up towards the Ridgway you get Victorian and Edwardian houses where the original back addition has been opened into the rear reception, so the kitchen ends up L-shaped with a run down the flank wall and a peninsula where the old wall stood. Newer apartment blocks above the town centre are mostly straight galley runs with a breakfast bar returning off the end. Send a few photographs of the run and we will tell you which of those you are dealing with before we come out to Wimbledon.

Sash windows sit low in the rear wall, and the sill often lands below the height a worktop wants to run past. Bathrooms in buildings like this are reached up a flight and worked in a room two people can barely stand in, and the visit is planned around both. A window reveal in a bathroom is stone as much as the vanity is.

The kitchen occupies the ground floor of the addition with a garden door at the far end, so there is a second way in that is narrower than the front door and a great deal shorter. The bathroom in one of these is usually a later addition over the back kitchen, so the walls are thinner, the floor moves and a vanity has to sit level in a room that is not. Old pipework is boxed rather than moved, and the top notches round it.

Around here the stock is Late Victorian terrace, Edwardian semi, 1930s mansion block and 2000s town-centre apartment. They fail in different places, which is why the survey looks at different things.

The place

Why bathroom worktops in Wimbledon are their own job

The difference between a smooth day in Wimbledon and a wasted one is usually decided before we arrive. The town centre one-way system and the bus lanes on the Broadway leave almost no legal standing time, and the residential streets either side are permit-only with short single-yellow windows. Anything going into a flat above the shops is a stair-only carry from a shared street door. The knock-through peninsula is where the cost and the risk sit, because new stone butts against a wall made good after a chimney breast came out, so we template after plastering, never before. It is the reason we template every room rather than working from a plan.

The money

What bathroom worktops cost in Wimbledon

In Wimbledon, 29% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, higher than 76% of the 723 areas we cover. A peninsula has a finished end and often an overhang, so it carries edge work a wall-side run never does. The supply rate of £110 to £550 per square metre reads the same for a small kitchen and a large one. Everything that makes them different jobs appears further down the quote.

Victorian and Edwardian terraces

What Wimbledon asks for in bathroom worktops

This one sits outside the domestic mix entirely. That mix, locally, is worktop replacement. Commercial pieces are drawn, cut and fitted exactly as a kitchen would be.

The route in

The carry, and what it rules out for bathroom worktops

Loading exemptions on red routes are narrow, time-limited and heavily camera-enforced, so we plan around them rather than relying on them. Where the vanity is fitted alongside a kitchen the van is standing anyway, which is a good part of why the two rooms are worth ordering together. The van waits while a kitchen goes in, not while a basin does.

The run

The shape of the run, and what it means for bathroom worktops

The joint where a peninsula meets the main run wants a gable directly under it, and where the units do not offer one, steel goes in to carry that joint instead. Where the room takes a sill, a shelf and a surround as well, what is nested is a small kit of parts rather than a single surface. Ordered later, the batch match is a gamble rather than a plan.

Questions

Bathroom worktop questions in Wimbledon

Do you actually work in Wimbledon?

Yes, Wimbledon (SW19) is on the patch, worked on our south west London run with Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon Park and South Wimbledon.

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

In Wimbledon, 9% of homes have been built since 2010, which is higher than 61% of the 723 areas we cover. Ceilings are high in these, so wall unit heights and splashback heights are open choices rather than things the room has already decided. Original boards over shallow joists give under load, so the unit is fixed back to the wall as well as standing on the floor before any stone goes on it.

What is the carry like in Wimbledon?

In Wimbledon, 51% of homes are flats or maisonettes: lower than 53% of the 723 areas we cover. A communal flight is out of use while a piece is on it, so the carry is timed so nobody is trying to pass on a half-landing. Newly laid flooring is what is most at risk on the way up, because tiling and grout go down before the stone arrives and fresh grout takes a knock badly.

What makes one job in Wimbledon dearer than the next?

An undermount basin costs more than a countertop one, because the aperture has to be cut, polished and bonded rather than simply dropped through. In Wimbledon, 21% of homes have four or more bedrooms, higher than 89% of the 723 areas we cover.

What needs to be ready before you come to Wimbledon?

In Wimbledon, from the Late Victorian terrace to the 2000s town-centre apartment, the vanity unit needs to be fixed and level before we template, with the basin and tap on site. Have the vanity unit fixed and levelled, and the basin and tap on site, before the templater arrives, and tell us what is inside any boxing.
