The housing here
What City of London's stock means for quartz

Original estate units are often shallower than a modern carcass, so a standard worktop depth overhangs further than it should. We check the depth before pricing the run. The batch is recorded against the order, so a later piece can still be matched to it.

Half-landings are where a long piece stops being possible. The turn is measured at survey and the piece list is written from it. It is a question for the template, and the template answers it in the room.

What moves the price
Our quartz runs from £150 to £270 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 69 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. Bigger kitchens are priced by the slab count. The template shows whether the run and an island nest into one slab or need two, and that decides more than the square metres do.
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 up a flight, each quartz piece is sized to the stairwell before it is sized to the room.
The share of homes in converted or shared houses is not even across City of London: of the 15 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in St Paul's at 9%, then Aldgate (3%) and Tower Hill (1%), and lowest in Bank at 1%. A conversion usually means a stair that turns and a kitchen made out of another room, so the quartz is cut from a template taken once the units are in.
Where most of the catalogue sits, supply only. Fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top.
Free samples are posted for the Worktop Worx quartz collection; other quartz is judged from the slab. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.

Questions
Quartz in City of London
01Do you fit quartz in City of London flats without a lift?
Yes. In City of London, flats make up 98.8% of homes, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. Without a lift every piece is a hand carry, so the stair turns and landings are measured at survey and the quartz is cut into lengths that will make them, with any join placed in the design.
02Our flat is in a converted house in City of London. Does that change a quartz worktop?
It changes the piece list more than the quartz. In City of London, 1.3% of homes sit in converted or shared houses, the lowest of the 33 London boroughs. Conversions give you stairs that turn and rooms that are rarely square, so we template after the units are fixed and plan any join around the carry.
03Is there a showroom we have to get to for quartz in City of London?
No, there is nothing to travel to. In City of London, 77.2% of households have no car, the highest of the 33 London boroughs. Samples of our own quartz are posted, and the template and the fitting both happen in your kitchen with our own team.

“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,…”
