Built between the wars · 36.9%
These kitchens are two familiar shapes, so the cut list is quick. The variable is the stone, and which slab the pieces come out of. The slab is tagged when you choose it, and your kitchen is cut from that one.
Lived in by their owners · 55.6%
Owners tend to want to know which slab is theirs. We tag it, and what is templated is cut from that piece. 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 Merton, 13.6% 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.
Morden Park has the highest owner-occupation of the 21 Merton neighbourhoods we list, at 82%, ahead of Lower Morden (82%) and Cannon Hill (81%); Colliers Wood has the lowest, at 43%. Granite wants its seal topped up now and then, which is simplest where the people cooking on it own it.
The share of housing standing before 1919 is not even across Merton: of the 21 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in South Wimbledon at 68%, then Wimbledon Chase (56%) and Wimbledon (52%), and lowest in Cannon Hill 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 Merton
01How many granite slabs does a big Merton kitchen need?
That is the question the price turns on, and the template answers it. In Merton, 13.3% of homes have four bedrooms or more, among the highest in London. For the stone, most of our 45 granite colours are £148 to £250 per square metre, supply only, with fabrication and fitting itemised.
02Does granite stand up to heavy cooking in Merton?
On heat it is excellent, and hot pans are fine on it. In Merton, 13.6% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, close to the middle of the London range. Keep the seal topped up, since granite is porous to varying degrees and is sealed when it goes in.
03How much upkeep does a granite worktop need in Merton?
A little, on a schedule. Granite is porous to varying degrees, so it is sealed on installation and topped up over time. In Merton, 55.6% of homes are lived in by the people who own them, above the London middle, and that upkeep is easiest where the people living with the worktop own it and know to do it.

“I am really happy with the work! He fitted my kitchen granite worktop really nicely and got the job done on time, just as promised. He was friendly, professional, and made sure everything was done the way I wanted. Would definitely recommend Karam to anyone looking for a great job!”
“I used Karem’s services 5 years ago for purchasing and fitting the quartz worktop in my then brand new kitchen. The price was reasonable and the service reliable and spot on, no delays in fitting, misunderstanding or excuses. I recommended him to a friend, who also used his services and they were happy too! If I need to order new kitchen work top again,…”
“We recently had a Calacatta Gold worktop installed by Worktop Worx and are really pleased with the result. It has completely transformed our kitchen, much brighter, modern, and high-end compared to our old wooden surface. The team were professional, efficient, and the finish is excellent with great attention to detail. The worktop looks amazing and is…”
