Council tax band F or above · 0.5%
The upstands and the window sill come out of the same sheet, and on a small kitchen the sheet is barely touched. The price sits in the operations rather than the area. One survey, one cut list, one fit.
Built between the wars · 49.9%
Suspended timber floors flex in the middle of a room, and a thin panel telegraphs movement rather than hiding it. The base is checked and stiffened first. The thickness is chosen for the room, not from the brochure.

What moves the price
Our sintered stone runs from £250 to £300 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 71 colours in the range. With short runs the labour sits in the cut-outs and the edges rather than the stone, which is why the quote itemises each one instead of quoting by the square metre.
Gascoigne has the highest share of post-2010 housing of the 24 Barking and Dagenham neighbourhoods we list, at 63%, ahead of Creekmouth (32%) and Barking Riverside (32%); Chadwell Heath has the lowest, at 1%. Modern carcasses are built square to a module, so a Dekton template on them goes quickly.
Gascoigne has the highest flat share of the 24 Barking and Dagenham neighbourhoods we list, at 95%, ahead of Thames View (58%) and Barking (48%); Becontree Heath has the lowest, at 14%. Where the kitchen is upstairs, the thinner Dekton formats weigh less on the stairs and turn more easily on a landing.
Where most of the catalogue sits, supply only. Fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top.
We cannot post sintered stone offcuts, so samples are the Worktop Worx quartz collection only. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.

“We recently had our kitchen worktops supplied and fitted by Worktop WorX using Laurent Gold sintered stone, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The finish, quality, and attention to detail were outstanding from start to finish. Karem was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer…”
“I used Karem’s services 5 years ago for purchasing and fitting the quartz worktop in my then brand new kitchen. The price was reasonable and the service reliable and spot on, no delays in fitting, misunderstanding or excuses. I recommended him to a friend, who also used his services and they were happy too! If I need to order new kitchen work top again,…”
“Kareem did the countertops dur8ng my kitchen remodel, and I was so impressed that I had him back to do the laundry room as well, which tells you everything you need to know. He is an absolute gem. Shows up when he says he will (which, let’s be honest, is rarer than it should be), does beautifully work, and clearly takes real pride in what he does. The…”
