Although Guildford is about a 45-minute drive from our Charlwood factory, it has always felt like the heart of our heartland. With a town population of around 80,000 and a wider borough of about 150,000, Guildford is an important part of our business. We’re fitting granite worktops in Guildford and the surrounding area almost every week — and our Checkatrade reviews speak for themselves!

Guildford is a fairly large town — though smaller than Worthing or Crawley — yet it boasts a cathedral, which some might say makes it a city! The town has a rich and fascinating history, likely beginning as a stopping point where a gap in the North Downs meets the River Wey. It was here that the Harrow Way, thought to be the oldest road in Britain, crossed the river. Even today, Guildford’s shape and layout are still defined by the river and its crossings.
The town prospered with the arrival of the canals and has continued to flourish into the 20th and 21st centuries, thanks in part to the establishment of the University of Surrey and the iconic Guildford Cathedral.

Of course, Guildford is more than just the town itself. The wider borough covers one of the most attractive parts of rural Surrey and includes several large villages and small towns, each with its own character. East and West Clandon, East and West Horsley, Normandy, Send, Worplesdon, Merrow and Effingham all fall within the Borough — and they’re all areas where we regularly install granite worktops.

We find that our Guildford customers usually know exactly what they’re looking for — high-quality stone and exceptional craftsmanship! Over the years, we’ve installed many spectacular kitchen worktops in beautiful homes throughout the area, leaving countless customers delighted with their new solid-stone, quartz, and granite surfaces.
While the trend towards engineered stone (quartz) remains strong in Guildford, there’s still a deep appreciation for the timeless, natural beauty of genuine granite — a look that never goes out of style.
