About Worktop Installer
Paperwork to keep on file
Ask for a written quote, a fitting drawing with dimensions, the material batch number and a warranty that covers joints and cut-outs for at least 2 years. Public liability cover of £1 million is standard. Keep the invoice: most stone warranties are void without proof of professional installation.
Cut-outs, hobs and safety margins
Cut-outs for hobs and sinks are made off-site with a CNC or wet saw, not on your driveway. Each cut weakens the slab, so most makers keep 60 mm between a hob cut-out and the front edge, and 50 mm from an internal corner. Ask which corners are reinforced with a rod.
Guarantees, insurance, and paperwork
Ask for a written guarantee on both the material and the workmanship. Stone suppliers often give 10 to 15 year warranties, while installer fit guarantees commonly run 1 to 2 years. Confirm public liability insurance in case of damage during fitting. Keep the invoice, measurements, and material batch number for any future claim.
Cut-outs for sinks, hobs, and taps
Most installers cut the sink and hob openings on site or in the factory depending on the material. Stone cut outs need polished edges and reinforcement under heavy hobs. Tap holes are drilled after fitting so positioning is exact. Ask who supplies the sink and hob models, and confirm the cut out sizes match the spec sheets exactly.
Day-to-day care that protects the top
Use a chopping board, wipe spills within 10 minutes, and clean stone with a pH-neutral spray. Avoid bleach, oven cleaner and vinegar on marble and quartz with resin. Hot pans above 180 °C can scorch solid surface; use trivets. Re-seal granite every 12 months with a water-based sealer.
Lead times you should plan around
From template to fit, quartz and granite need 5 to 10 working days for cutting, polishing and edging. Solid surface can be ready in 3 to 5 days. Add 1 week if you want a pressed stainless sink or drainer grooves. Rush jobs cost more and may limit colour choice.
Aftercare: keeping the surface in good shape
Laminate needs dry surfaces and gentle cleaners. Wood needs oil every 6 months and prompt wipe ups. Granite and marble need sealing, often yearly. Quartz needs little beyond mild soap and water. Always use a chopping board and avoid placing a hot pan directly on any surface except near a designated trivet area.
Typical timeline from order to fitting
Laminate can often be fitted within 1 week of measuring. Solid wood takes 2 to 3 weeks including acclimatisation. Quartz and granite need templating, then factory cutting, then fitting, usually 2 to 4 weeks total. Allow extra time if you also need plumbing or appliance changes. Ask for each stage in writing with a target date.
Early signs of a poor install
Open joints after 48 hours, silicone smeared on the surface, chips near cut-outs and a rocking top on a level cabinet are red flags. Also check the underside for resin pooling and tap the centre of each cut-out lightly: a hollow sound means the corner radius is too tight for the slab.
Why a 3 mm gap can ruin a run
Walls are rarely straight. Installers scribe the back edge to follow the wall, leaving a small shadow gap sealed with silicone. If the gap is wider than 5 mm, the cabinet sides need packing. Ask how the installer handles out-of-plumb walls before they cut the slab to final size.
