Where a block was fitted to one specification the sintered finishes repeat, so a single replacement can be made to match its neighbours. One survey, one cut list, one fit.

A sink and a hob in a short run is two of the slowest operations in the shortest possible span. It is the least favourable shape for this material and we will say so. That is a fabrication decision, taken before anything is cut.
Our sintered stone runs from £250 to £300 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 65 colours in the range. On kitchens this size the cut-outs and the joins cost more than the area does, so a rate per square metre would tell you almost nothing useful. We price the actual cut list.

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 Newham
Can you replace a worktop in a new-build flat in Newham?
Yes. Newer units are square and built to a module, which makes the template quick and the yield predictable. The thing to check is the carcass: we confirm at survey that the existing units will take a new top before anything is ordered.
Is sintered stone worth it on a small kitchen in Newham?
Often, but not for the reason people expect. On a compact run the cut-outs and joins cost more than the surface area does, so the material rate matters less than the cut list. We price the actual list so the comparison is real.
Do you cover the whole of Newham?
Yes — 22 neighbourhoods across 7 postcode districts, Beckton, Canning Town, Custom House and Cyprus 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.
