What We Do

Design & Installation

We work through the design with you, then measure the room with digital laser templating so every cut-out, join and edge lands where it should. Cut, profiled and hand-finished in the workshop; installed, sealed and signed off by our own fitters.

Silica-Free Options

The same stone, without the silica.

Engineered quartz has always been high in crystalline silica, and it is the dust from cutting and polishing it that causes silicosis. The industry is changing, and we are changing with it. The worktop on this page is 30mm Statuario Oro, one of CRL’s silica-free surfaces with the same veining and the same finish, and none of the respirable silica.

Whatever a slab is made of, every cut we make is worked wet, extracted at source and handled with the right protection. Ask about the silica-free range at consultation and we’ll show you how it looks next to whatever you had in mind.

How We Work

From first conversation to final polish.

Five stages, one team. Nothing is subcontracted out, which is why the timeline holds and the finish is consistent.

01

Consultation

The space, the look you’re after and how the kitchen is actually used. We narrow the material down together.

02

Laser Template

Once the units are in, we template digitally on site. Every cut-out agreed before a slab is touched.

03

Fabrication

Cut, profiled and hand-finished in the workshop. Veining matched across joins and mitres where the design allows.

04

Installation

Our own fitters install, seal and finish — about a week after templating, usually in a single day.

05

Aftercare

Care guidance on handover, and a standing offer to answer anything that comes up once you are living with the surface.

Turnaround

About one week from template to installation.

Assuming your material is in stock and doesn’t need special ordering. We confirm the exact date at template, not before, so the date we give you is the date we fit.

Questions

Frequently asked.

The things clients ask us most; materials, timings, care and how a job actually runs.

How long does an installation take?
Typically our turnaround is about one week from template to installation, assuming the material is in stock and doesn't need special ordering. The fit itself is usually a single day.
What is silicosis, and should I be worried about a quartz worktop?
The risk sits with the people cutting and polishing the stone, not the people living with it — it comes from breathing respirable crystalline silica dust during fabrication. We work wet, extract at source and use the right protection. If you'd rather avoid silica altogether, we can specify from CRL's silica-free range, which looks and behaves like quartz without it.
What's the difference between quartz, granite and marble?
Quartz is engineered from natural quartz stone and resins — non-porous, highly durable and very low maintenance. Granite is a natural stone, extremely hard-wearing and heat resistant. Marble is the most luxurious and the softest of the three, and needs the most care.
Is marble a good idea in a kitchen?
It can be beautiful, but marble is more porous than granite or quartz and is susceptible to staining and etching from acidic substances. It needs regular sealing and a little more care day to day.
Do granite worktops stain?
Granite is generally stain resistant once properly sealed, but it's still best to wipe up spills promptly — particularly oil, wine and citrus.
Does marble need sealing?
Yes. Marble should be sealed regularly, in line with the manufacturer's recommendations, to protect it from stains and etching.
Is quartz scratch resistant?
Quartz is highly scratch resistant, but we'd still recommend using chopping boards and avoiding abrasive cleaners to keep the finish looking new.
Is porcelain heat resistant?
Yes — porcelain is highly heat resistant, which makes it very well suited to kitchen worktops.
Can I put hot pans straight on the worktop?
Granite, quartz and porcelain are all heat resistant, but we'd always recommend trivets or hot pads. Marble in particular needs extra caution.
How should I clean porcelain?
Mild soapy water and a soft cloth is all it needs. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads.
Can porcelain be used outdoors?
Yes. Porcelain is highly resistant to UV, frost and temperature change, so it works well for outdoor kitchens and garden bars.
How do I choose the right material?
It comes down to how the space is used, the look you want and your budget — weighing durability, maintenance and heat resistance against each other. Bring your plans in and we'll talk it through against real slabs.
