Quartz worktops in Southwark

Modern flats often put the run against a partition rather than a solid wall, so the fixings and the weight matter more than the finish does. The batch is recorded against the order, so a later piece can still be matched to it.

Lived in by their owners / 28.9%

Between tenancies the useful property is that it asks for nothing: no reseal, no schedule, no one to remember it. That is a survey question, and we answer it on the day.

The middle half of our quartz range runs from £150 to £270 per square metre, across 69 colours. In Southwark, 8.9% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, below the London middle. Price follows the pieces, not the room: each join, cut-out and edge is a line on the quote, and the slab count comes from how the template nests.

The share of homes that are flats is not even across Southwark: of the 21 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Elephant and Castle at 98%, then Borough (96%) and London Bridge (96%), and lowest in Dulwich Village at 28%. Where the kitchen is up a flight, each quartz piece is sized to the stairwell before it is sized to the room.

Across Southwark's 21 neighbourhoods, the share of homes in converted or shared houses runs from 1% in Surrey Quays to 30% in East Dulwich, with West Dulwich (27%) and Peckham Rye (22%) next. 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.

Free samples are posted for the Worktop Worx quartz collection; other quartz is judged from the slab.
