No sealing, no maintenance schedule, and heat will not mark it. Where no one is going to look after a worktop, that is the argument. Finish decided against your own units, not under showroom light.

The thinner formats are the reason to consider it here. A piece that will not go round a half-landing at thirty millimetres often will 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 Islington, 16.6% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, above the London middle. 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.
The share of housing built since 2010 is not even across Islington: of the 19 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in St Luke's at 30%, then Caledonian Road (24%) and Bunhill (23%), and lowest in Newington Green at 1%. Newer kitchens usually sit on square, modular units, which keeps the template for a Dekton top quick.
St Luke's has the highest flat share of the 19 Islington neighbourhoods we list, at 99%, ahead of Farringdon (99%) and Bunhill (98%); Angel has the lowest, at 77%. 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 Islington
01Is Dekton worth it in a post-war Islington kitchen?
It can be. In Islington, 27.2% of the housing dates from the three decades after the war, among the highest in London. Those kitchens tend to be compact and cut-out heavy, so the price is driven by the cut-outs and joins more than the area; every room is still measured, however familiar the plan.
02Is a Dekton island in Islington priced by area?
Mainly by slab yield. In Islington, 9.6% of homes have four bedrooms or more, below the London middle. The template shows how the pieces nest; for the material, most of the 63 Dekton colours we fit are £226 to £300 per square metre, supply only.
03Do you fit Dekton in Islington flats without a lift?
Yes. In Islington, flats make up 85.3% of homes, among the highest in London. Every piece goes up by hand, so the stair turns are measured at survey and the Dekton is cut to lengths that make them, with any join agreed in advance.
