Frequently asked questions

It is as simple as choosing the stone you would like and then taking some photos of your current kitchen or area that you want to have benchtops done and giving us a rough sketch with approximate measurements. We can then give you an initial no obligations quote to help you make your decision.
For the most accurate initial quotation, please give us as much details as you can which include but are not limited to,
-floor level of renovation/ details of access to renovation area
-stone selection
-thickness of stone
-seen edges of benchtops
-cook top/ sink cut outs required
-whether sink is to be top or under mounted with rebate or not
-tap/air switch/ water filter holes required to be drilled

Feel free to browse at our many samples, we are also happy to give you advice and help you find the right stone for your new benchtops.

Almost all kitchen benchtops will have joins, how many joins will depend on the layout and size of the kitchen and limitations during fabrication such as the size of the stone slab.

General thicknesses for our benchtops are
12mm & 20mm for porcelain
20mm & 30mm for marble, granite and quartz (engineered stone)
however, all can be mitred to custom thicknesses

Just give the surface a quick wipe with a damp sponge or microfibre cloth with some soapy water, for more problematic stains, we recommend using a bit of Jif cleaner and that should do the trick.
From the time we receive your deposit, fabrication takes between 5-14 working days, if installation is required, this usually takes 1 working day but the lead time may be extended to suit our installation schedule. Please understand that in some cases lead times are affected due to our supplier’s stock.
Of course you can, this would most likely reduce the lead time for your new tops.
