The housing here
What Lambeth's stock means for quartz
Across Lambeth, 20.6% of homes sit in converted or shared houses, among the highest in London. 40.2% of the housing was already standing before 1919, above the London middle.
Converted or shared houses · 20.6%
A conversion often leaves the kitchen sharing a wall with a bedroom, which decides where the sink and the machines can sensibly sit. The cut-outs follow that rather than the layout. Nothing to seal on the day, and nothing to seal later.
Standing before 1919 · 40.2%
Walls this old are rarely straight and never assumed to be. The scribe comes off the template, and quartz mills to it cleanly enough that the joint at the wall stays tight. It changes the piece list rather than the specification.

What moves the price
Our quartz runs from £150 to £270 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 69 colours in the range. In Lambeth, 12.1% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, close to the middle of the London 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.
Waterloo has the highest flat share of the 23 Lambeth neighbourhoods we list, at 92%, ahead of South Bank (92%) and Vauxhall (92%); Streatham Vale has the lowest, at 11%. In those, the route up the stairs, more than the room, sets the size of each quartz piece.
Brixton Hill has the highest share of converted houses of the 23 Lambeth neighbourhoods we list, at 30%, ahead of Streatham Common (30%) and Herne Hill (29%); Streatham Vale has the lowest, at 4%. A conversion usually means a stair that turns and a kitchen made out of another room, so the quartz is cut from a template taken once the units are in.
Where most of the catalogue sits, supply only. Fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top.
Free samples are posted for the Worktop Worx quartz collection; other quartz is judged from the slab. The template is taken in your kitchen and the stone is fitted there too.

Questions
Quartz in Lambeth
01What should we know about quartz in a Lambeth conversion?
Mostly that the carry and the walls set the plan. In Lambeth, 20.6% of homes sit in converted or shared houses, among the highest in London. A turning stair limits the length of each piece and old walls are rarely square, so the template comes after the units are fixed and any join is agreed before cutting.
02Can you get quartz worktops into a flat in Lambeth?
Yes. In Lambeth, flats make up 77% of homes, above the London middle. In a flat the route matters more than the room, so the stairwell, the lift and the turns are measured at survey and each quartz piece is sized to what will physically go up. Where a full length will not make the turn, the join is planned into the design rather than improvised on the day.
03How do we choose a quartz colour for a Lambeth kitchen?
In the kitchen itself, with a sample. In Lambeth, 33% of homes are lived in by the people who own them, below the London middle. Samples of our own Worktop Worx quartz collection are posted free; put one against your floor and units in daylight and again at night. Colours we order in by the slab cannot be posted, and each colour page says which kind it is.
