Unit heights and ceiling heights in a conversion rarely agree, and the template has to record the room as found rather than as it ought to be. Finish, thickness and edge are three separate decisions, and we go through all three.

Chimney breasts survive in most of these kitchens and the alcoves are rarely equal. Both get machined to the template, so both get measured properly. Worth mentioning when you enquire, so the quote uses the right format.
Our sintered stone runs from £250 to £300 per square metre for most of the catalogue, with 65 colours in the range. On rooms this size the number is set by slab yield: how many pieces come out of a slab, and whether an island needs a second one. Square metreage is the last thing we work out, not the first.

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 Wandsworth
Our flat is a converted house — does that change the sintered stone worktop?
It changes the piece list more than the material. Conversions give you stairs that turn and rooms that are rarely square, so we template after the units are fixed and plan any join around the carry. The specification stays the same; how it arrives does not.
Will sintered stone sit properly against the old walls in a Wandsworth kitchen?
Yes, provided it is templated and not estimated. Walls this age are rarely straight, so the wall line is cut from a physical template taken after the units are fixed and level. That is why we do not quote a worktop from a floor plan.
Do you cover the whole of Wandsworth?
Yes — 21 neighbourhoods across 8 postcode districts, Balham, Battersea, Battersea Park and Between the Commons 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.
