The housing here
What Brent's stock means for granite
In Brent, 16.9% of the housing has gone up since 2010, among the highest in London. 16.5% of homes sit in converted or shared houses, among the highest in London.
Built since 2010 · 16.9%
Modern kitchens are usually unaltered, so the drawing is close to the truth. We still template, because granite is cut once. The slab itself is the sample, so granite is chosen by the piece.
Converted or shared houses · 16.5%
Kitchens in converted houses are usually former back rooms, with services already where the last use left them. The cut-outs follow that, not a standard layout. Which is a slab decision, and it is made with you.

What moves the price
Our granite runs from £148 to £250 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 45 colours in the range. In Brent, 7.6% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the lowest in London. On kitchens this size the cut-outs and the joins cost more than the area does, so a rate per square metre would tell you almost nothing useful. We price the actual cut list.
Across Brent's 26 neighbourhoods, owner-occupation runs from 16% in Park Royal to 66% in North Wembley, with Queensbury (56%) and Kingsbury (54%) next. Granite wants its seal topped up now and then, which is simplest where the people cooking on it own it.
The share of housing standing before 1919 is not even across Brent: of the 26 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Kensal Green at 82%, then Queen's Park (78%) and Kensal Rise (78%), and lowest in Kingsbury at 0%. Walls of that age are rarely straight, so a granite top is scribed to the template rather than to a straight line.
Where most of the catalogue sits, supply only. Fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top.
We cannot post granite offcuts, so samples are the Worktop Worx quartz collection only. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.

Questions
Granite in Brent
01Can we put hot pans straight onto granite in Brent?
Yes, granite handles heat well, so a pan off the hob is fine on it. In Brent, 7.6% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the lowest in London. What it asks in return is a seal: it is sealed when fitted and topped up over time.
02How much upkeep does a granite worktop need in Brent?
A little, on a schedule. Granite is porous to varying degrees, so it is sealed on installation and topped up over time. In Brent, 38.4% of homes are lived in by the people who own them, below the London middle, and that upkeep is easiest where the people living with the worktop own it and know to do it.
03Do you fit granite in Brent flats without a lift?
Yes. In Brent, flats make up 62.3% of homes, above the London middle. With no lift every piece goes up by hand, so the stair turns are measured at survey and the granite is cut to lengths that will make them, any join planned in.
