Grey quartz worktops
Grey quartz worktops from £130/m² supply: pale concrete greys, mid greys, charcoals and grey sparkles, templated, fabricated and fitted in London.
Grey quartz runs from a pale, concrete-like grey that is nearly white to a deep charcoal, with flat colours, softly mottled concrete looks and grey bases with a mirror fleck in between. Every one is quartz, so it is non-porous, never needs sealing and is consistent from one slab to the next.
Grey is the colour people choose when white feels too stark and black feels too heavy. A mid grey sits comfortably with white, navy, green and wood-effect units alike, and it hides the everyday marks a plain white shows: crumbs, light water spots and the faint grey of a pan base.
We fit 12 grey quartz colours, supplied from £130 to £290 per square metre from WWX Collection and Silestone. Silver Sparkle is the least expensive and Harbourfront Stone the dearest; fabrication, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top, per kitchen.

Choosing
Choosing a grey quartz
Decide on light or dark first, because that is the choice that changes the room. A pale grey keeps a small or north-facing kitchen bright and reads almost white under warm lighting. A charcoal grounds a large open-plan room and makes white or pale wood units look crisper, at the cost of making a dark room feel smaller.
Then look at the undertone. Some greys lean blue and some lean warm, towards beige or taupe, and the difference only shows with a piece next to your units and floor. Our guide to choosing a worktop colour goes through how to judge it in your own light rather than on a screen.
The concrete looks have soft clouding in them, so two pieces of the same colour will not be identical patch for patch. That is the look, but it is worth knowing before you set your heart on one particular corner of a photograph. The flat greys and the sparkles are far more uniform from piece to piece.
Care is the same as any quartz. Wipe with warm water and a little washing-up liquid, keep a trivet for pans straight off the hob, and keep bleach and oven cleaner off it. A darker grey shows limescale and dried water spots sooner than a pale one in a hard-water area, so dry it off after a wipe; our page on removing stains from stone covers anything that has been left too long.

Grey quartz worktops: common questions
01Are grey quartz worktops still a good choice?
We do not try to predict fashion, but grey sits with almost any unit colour and hides everyday marks better than plain white. If you are unsure, a pale or mid grey is the easier choice to live with when the units or the walls change later.
02Should I choose light or dark grey quartz?
Light grey keeps a smaller or darker kitchen bright; dark grey suits a large, well-lit room and makes white or pale units stand out. Dark greys show limescale and dried water spots sooner, so in a hard-water area a pale or mid grey is lower maintenance.
03What are the downsides of a quartz worktop?
Heat and strong chemicals. The resin that binds quartz can scorch under a pan straight off the hob or out of the oven, and bleach, oven cleaner and strong descalers can dull it. Use a trivet and a mild cleaner and neither is a problem day to day.
04How much do grey quartz worktops cost?
Supply prices for the 12 grey quartz colours we fit run from £130 per square metre (Silver Sparkle) to £290 (Harbourfront Stone), with Concrete Light in the middle at £180. That is the slab only: templating, fabrication, edges, cut-outs and fitting are quoted on top, itemised, after we have seen your kitchen.
05Can I get a free sample of grey quartz?
Yes, for Silver Sparkle, Coastal Mist, Glacier Granite, Graphite Ice, Dark Urban Concrete and Urban Concrete. We post free offcuts of the Worktop Worx quartz collection; the others are ordered in by the slab, so there is no offcut to send and we show you the slab instead.
