  1. Flats · 25.6%

    A side return or a garage gives somewhere to stage heavy pieces, which matters more with granite than with anything else we fit. The slab is tagged when you choose it, and your kitchen is cut from that one.

  2. Lived in by their owners · 69.5%

    Granite varies stone to stone, so the decision is made in front of the slab rather than from a swatch. That suits a household choosing for itself. 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. In Havering, 9.5% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, below the London middle. The figure comes from the cut list: how many joins, how many cut-outs, and how cleanly the pieces nest into a slab, not from the floor area.

North Ockendon has the highest owner-occupation of the 27 Havering neighbourhoods we list, at 93%, ahead of Corbets Tey (93%) and Rise Park (90%); Harold Hill has the lowest, at 45%. 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.

Heath Park has the highest pre-1919 share of the 27 Havering neighbourhoods we list, at 32%, ahead of Romford (15%) and North Ockendon (8%); Harold Hill has the lowest, 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 Havering

01

Do you fit granite in Havering flats without a lift?

Yes. In Havering, flats make up 25.6% of homes, the lowest of the 33 London boroughs. 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.

02

Is granite a good choice beside a busy hob in Havering?

On heat, yes: hot pans are fine on granite, which is why it still earns its place next to a hob that gets hammered. In Havering, 9.5% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, below the London middle. The trade-off is upkeep, because granite is sealed on installation and topped up over time.

03

What does granite cost for a larger kitchen in Havering?

It depends on the slab count more than the room. In Havering, 10.9% of homes have four bedrooms or more, close to the middle of the London range. The template shows whether the run and any island come out of one slab or two; the stone itself, for most of our 45 granite colours, is £148 to £250 per square metre, supply only.

“We recently had the Arctic Starburst worktop installed by Worktop WorX and it looks amazing. The subtle sparkle really catches the light and gives the kitchen a clean, modern feel. The Arctic Starburst surface feels high quality, durable, and is easy to keep clean. The finish and installation from Worktop WorX were spot on. Really happy with the result…”
