The housing here

What Greenwich's stock means for granite

In Greenwich, 18.2% of the housing has gone up since 2010, among the highest in London. 5.3% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the lowest in London.

    Where a block was fitted out to one specification, a granite replacement will not match its neighbours. That is a property of the material and it is better said plainly. The slab itself is the sample, so granite is chosen by the piece.

  2. Council tax band F or above · 5.3%

    On a compact run the waste around the sink is most of the cost. Granite is priced by the slab, so a small kitchen still consumes a slab-sized decision. The stone decides part of this, and we will show you which part.

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. 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 Greenwich's 20 neighbourhoods, owner-occupation runs from 20% in Woolwich Dockyard to 74% in New Eltham, with Coldharbour (65%) and Eltham (63%) next. 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 Greenwich: of the 20 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Blackheath Standard at 48%, then Plumstead (47%) and Westcombe Park (46%), and lowest in Thamesmead 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 Greenwich

01

Does granite stand up to heavy cooking in Greenwich?

On heat it is excellent, and hot pans are fine on it. In Greenwich, 5.3% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, among the lowest in London. Keep the seal topped up, since granite is porous to varying degrees and is sealed when it goes in.

02

How many granite slabs does a big Greenwich kitchen need?

That is the question the price turns on, and the template answers it. In Greenwich, 7.6% of homes have four bedrooms or more, among the lowest in London. For the stone, most of our 45 granite colours are £148 to £250 per square metre, supply only, with fabrication and fitting itemised.

03

How much upkeep does a granite worktop need in Greenwich?

A little, on a schedule. Granite is porous to varying degrees, so it is sealed on installation and topped up over time. In Greenwich, 41.2% of homes are lived in by the people who own them, close to the middle of the London range, and that upkeep is easiest where the people living with the worktop own it and know to do it.
