Common Questions

Here is a selection of our most frequently asked questions:

How much will the material cost me?
We can either come to site to template or we can work to your own drawings. We will then ask you what kind of material you would like (to blend in with the rest of the kitchen) and once your selection is made we will give you a quotation in writing by fax, email or post. We aim to quote within 24 hours.

Can you send me samples?
We can of course send samples, we would first ask that you narrow down your search to one or two and you can see how the sample works with the rest of your decor and lighting. A selection of our most popular materials can be viewed in our Database of Materials section of this website.

What does your service include?
We can arrange for supply only of your kitchen material, or we can include for templating and fitting also.  If we are templating, we need to have all the base units fixed in place with all the fixtures and fittings available.  We also ask is that someone is there so that any details can be clarified at the time.

Will you plumb in the sink/taps/hob?
No, these are specialist trades and would therefore need the specialist help from your plumber/electrician or kitchen fitter.

Can either I or my kitchen fitter fit the tops?
Yes, we will supply full instructions and resins to complete the procedure.

Will the joints be seen?
Yes, but we always try to minimise the amount of jointing, and we use coloured resins to ensure the best colour match possible.

Can we add to our tops at a later date?
We will be happy to supply further material to complement your tops, and we will endeavour to achieve the best match to the original order as possible.  It is important to note, however that as a natural product granite will always be subject to naturally ocurring variation.

What is the cleaning and care procedure?General cleaning of granite worktops is simple and instructions will be provided.  We also can provide a Care and Maintenance pack with includes a cleaner, polish and stain repellant.
