Dekton worktops in Tower Hamlets

32nd of 33 London boroughs, highest first

11th of 33 London boroughs, highest first

Built since 2010 / 28.6%

Boxed and documented services mean the cut-outs are known before the sheet is machined, which here is the difference between a settled price and an open one. One survey, one cut list, one fit.

Lived in by their owners / 23.1%

Where a managing agent controls access, arranging the slot takes longer than the fit. We book to what is actually confirmed. Worth mentioning when you enquire, so the quote uses the right format.

The middle half of our sintered stone range runs from £250 to £300 per square metre, across 71 colours, 63 of them Dekton. In Tower Hamlets, 13.7% of homes sit in council tax band F or above, above 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.

Blackwall has the highest share of post-2010 housing of the 23 Tower Hamlets neighbourhoods we list, at 57%, ahead of Canary Wharf (54%) and Bromley-by-Bow (39%); Shadwell has the lowest, at 5%. Modern carcasses are built square to a module, so a Dekton template on them goes quickly.

The share of homes that are flats is not even across Tower Hamlets: of the 23 neighbourhoods we list, it is highest in Canary Wharf at 99%, then Blackwall (98%) and Brick Lane (94%), and lowest in Old Ford at 68%. Where the kitchen is upstairs, the thinner Dekton formats weigh less on the stairs and turn more easily on a landing.

We cannot post sintered stone offcuts, so samples are the Worktop Worx quartz collection only.
