We buy a large proportion of our stone in bulk from regular suppliers. We stock a relatively narrow range of materials, and that helps with the bulk-buying and solid discounts, which are passed on to you, the customer. All of this allows us to greatly reduce the cost of your worktops.
Affordable Granite: Who are we?
Yes, however it is helpful if you have a drawing or sketch of the kitchen layout for us to give you a really accurate quotation. Please send, fax or email one to us. Read about our purchase/installation process.
Yes, we are happy to send you a free sample (£7.50 charge for postage & packing). If you wish to view large slabs before installation then you can come to Charlwood – please contact the office to arrange this.
Yes, we do offer a bespoke service for those who want something different to the standard colours – see some of the bespoke granite colours
Yes we offer a full bespoke granite worktop service – see details of our bespoke worktops here
We have done over the years, but our kitchen worktop installations are mostly concentrated in the London, Surrey, Sussex and the South East area. This makes both environmental and economic sense. Please see full details of our installation service.
Our maximum joint size is 3mm and the colour of the jointing compound will be colour matched to minimise visibility. Some colours will show the joints more than others.
It is preferable not to fit the wall units first, although sometimes for example where you are replacing existing worktops, this is not possible. Dressers or boiler cabinets that come down to the worktops must not be fitted.
Tea with milk! Seriously though, your cabinets should be level to within 3mm and supports must be provided in corners and over any gaps.
Yes, you will need to be present to approve your granite and pay us on our satisfactory completion.
Yes – read more on granite templating
See photo examples of both upstands & splashbacks
No, your plumber/electrician/gas installer will need to do this.
Yes, but you will need to remove the existing worktops before we arrive and arrange for disconnection and reconnection of services. Please also note that the existing worktops may be thicker than the granite which is 30mm ±2mm.
We can deliver on a supply only basis to all of the UK. If you require installation then an additional charge will be made for fitting in areas which are a significant distance from our workshop at Charlwood (near Gatwick), If you are outside London and the home counties you may find that it will be more economically viable to find a local installer. Small orders may incur a delay during busy periods. Please see “Install areas and Costs” We are also able to supply, though not fit, in other parts of the EU. Please read our Terms and Conditions.
