Suspended timber floors flex most in the middle of a room, so a peninsula or an island carrying granite needs its base checked and stiffened before the top goes on. Sealed on the day it is fitted, and we tell you when it is due again.

Side access means the longest piece stays whole, and a whole piece of granite is one continuous run of pattern. Better weighed while the slabs are still in front of you.
Our granite runs from £148 to £250 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 45 colours in the range. What moves the number is the cut list — joins, cut-outs and how the pieces nest into a slab — rather than the floor area of the room.

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 quartz range only. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.
Questions
Granite in Harrow
We have a nineteen-thirties semi in Harrow. What should we expect?
Usually a galley and a rear addition, which take standard-length runs with few joins. The variable is what has already been done to the back of the house: an extension or a knocked-through wall changes the run and is worth mentioning when you enquire.
Do you need rear access to fit granite in a house in Harrow?
It helps and it is usually available here. A side gate or a through route lets us bring full-length pieces in whole, which means fewer joins. Where the only way in is through the front, we say so at survey and size the pieces to the hallway.
Do you cover the whole of Harrow?
Yes — 21 neighbourhoods across 7 postcode districts, Belmont, Canons Park, Greenhill and Harrow Garden Village among them. There is nothing to visit: the template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there by the same team.

The housing does not change, so most of what is on this page still applies. What changes is weight, machining and maintenance.
