The housing here
What City of London's stock means for sintered stone
Taken across the whole of City of London, 43.5% of the housing dates from the three decades after the war, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. Flats make up 98.8% of homes, the highest of the 33 London boroughs.
Built in the three decades after the war · 43.5%
Estate kitchens are small and cut-out heavy, and cut-outs are the expensive operation in sintered stone. Worth pricing against quartz before deciding. One survey, one cut list, one fit.
Flats · 98.8%
This is where sintered stone earns its price. It is made in thinner formats than granite or quartz, so a piece that could not have gone up the stairwell at thirty millimetres can go up at twelve. We will say which format suits it at survey.

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. In City of London, 39.7% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the highest in London. In a large room the question is how many slabs the cut list needs, because an island that spills onto a second slab moves the price more than any extra metre of run.
The share of housing built since 2010 is not even across City of London: of the 15 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Aldgate at 42%, then Tower Hill (18%) and Temple (18%), and lowest in St Paul's at 15%. Modern carcasses are built square to a module, so a Dekton template on them goes quickly.
Tower Hill has the highest flat share of the 15 City of London neighbourhoods we list, at 99%, ahead of Temple (99%) and Smithfield (99%); St Paul's has the lowest, at 72%. 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.

Questions
Dekton in City of London
01Do you fit Dekton on estate kitchens in City of London?
Yes. In City of London, 43.5% of the housing dates from the three decades after the war, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. Estate plans repeat, but every room is still measured; compact runs are cut-out heavy, and that drives the price more than the area does.
02Our City of London kitchen is fairly new. Is Dekton an upgrade worth making?
It can be. In City of London, 18.1% of the housing has gone up since 2010, among the highest in London. Dekton never needs sealing and nothing in it can scorch, and newer square, modular units make the template quick; we check the carcasses will carry it first.
03Will Dekton make it up to a City of London flat in one piece?
Where the route allows it, and where it does not the join is planned, not improvised. In City of London, flats make up 98.8% of homes, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. We measure the lift and the stair turns at survey and cut each Dekton piece to fit the route.

“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.

“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…”
“Excellent service from start to finish. The team at Worktop Worx were professional, friendly, and really paid attention to detail. They listened to what I wanted, gave helpful advice, and delivered a high-quality finish. The worktop looks amazing and has completely transformed the space. Everything was completed on time and left clean and tidy. Highly…”
