The kitchen is often a former back room with services already in place, so the cut-outs are dictated by the conversion. Each one is machined, so their number matters. Finish, thickness and edge are three separate decisions, and we go through all three.

Scribing a material this hard is slow, so it is done at the works from an accurate template rather than eased at the wall. Worth mentioning when you enquire, so the quote uses the right format.
Our sintered stone runs from £250 to £300 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 65 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 sintered stone offcuts, so samples are the quartz range only. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.
Questions
Dekton & sintered in Lambeth
Our flat is a converted house — does that change the sintered stone worktop?
It changes the piece list more than the material. 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. The specification stays the same; how it arrives does not.
Will sintered stone sit properly against the old walls in a Lambeth kitchen?
Yes, provided it is templated and not estimated. Walls this age are rarely straight, so the wall line is cut from a physical template taken after the units are fixed and level. That is why we do not quote a worktop from a floor plan.
Do you cover the whole of Lambeth?
Yes — 23 neighbourhoods across 11 postcode districts, Angell Town, Brixton, Brixton Hill and Clapham 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.
