What Barnet's stock means for granite

In Barnet, 25.8% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the highest in London. 33.8% of the housing went up between the wars, above the London middle.

A run, an island and a tall bank is three yield problems rather than one, and on natural stone they have to be solved against the same slab. Sealed on the day it is fitted, and we tell you when it is due again.

Built between the wars / 33.8%

The serving hatch survives in a lot of these houses, and closing it up changes the wall the run sits against. Better done before the template than after it. The stone decides part of this, and we will show you which part.

The middle half of our granite range runs from £148 to £250 per square metre, across 45 colours. On rooms this size the number is set by slab yield: how many pieces come out of a slab, and whether an island needs a second one. Square metreage is the last thing we work out, not the first.

Owner-occupation is not even across Barnet: of the 31 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in New Southgate at 77%, then Totteridge (75%) and Arkley (75%), and lowest in Brent Cross at 30%. Granite is sealed on installation and topped up over time, a schedule that is easiest to keep where people own the kitchen they cook in.

The share of housing standing before 1919 is not even across Barnet: of the 31 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Temple Fortune at 61%, then Golders Green (47%) and East Finchley (45%), and lowest in Burnt Oak at 1%. Walls of that age are rarely straight, so a granite top is scribed to the template rather than to a straight line.

Questions

Granite in Barnet

01

Does granite stand up to heavy cooking in Barnet?

On heat it is excellent, and hot pans are fine on it. In Barnet, 25.8% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the highest in London. Keep the seal topped up, since granite is porous to varying degrees and is sealed when it goes in.

02

Does granite work in an inter-war Barnet semi?

Yes. In Barnet, 33.8% of the housing went up between the wars, above the London middle. Those kitchens are often a galley or a back addition, so the runs are standard lengths with few joins; tell us if the back of the house has been extended, because that changes the run.

03

Is granite practical in an upstairs Barnet flat?

It is, with the carry planned. In Barnet, flats make up 50.3% of homes, close to the middle of the London range. Every turn and the lift are measured at survey, the pieces are sized to the route, and if a join is needed its place is agreed before the stone is cut.
