About Worktop Installer
Preparing your kitchen before fitting day
Clear all items from base units and the surrounding floor. The installer needs at least 60 cm of clear workspace and a safe power socket. If walls are tiled, remove old splashbacks first unless the quote includes that. Confirm the route from the door to the kitchen can take a heavy slab without damage to floors or door frames.
Joints: where they go and how they look
Slabs over about 3 metres long need at least 1 seam. The best installers hide the joint on a corner or above a dishwasher, never over an undermounted sink. A colour-matched resin joint should sit 0.1 to 0.3 mm proud when new and settle flat after 24 hours in a warm kitchen.
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.
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.
Main worktop materials compared
Laminate worktops cost the least but scratch and swell near water. Solid wood looks warm but needs oiling every 6 months. Quartz is hard, non-porous, and resists stains well. Granite is tough but needs sealing once a year. Solid surface and Dekton are also common. Match the material to how heavily you cook and clean, not just the look.
Questions to ask before you book
Ask how many similar worktops they have fitted in the last 12 months. Ask whether fitting and removal of the old top are included. Ask who does the templating, what happens if a slab is cut wrong, and whether they handle plumbing reconnection. Get the answers in writing along with the deposit and final payment terms.
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.
Common problems and how to spot them
Gaps between worktop and wall mean poor scribing. Uneven joints suggest rushed templating. Chipped edges on stone happen during transport and are sometimes hidden with resin. Water pooling near a sink points to a bad seal. Inspect under good light, run your finger along joints, and ask the installer to fix issues before they leave.
What really changes the final quote
Price varies with material thickness, edge profile, number of cut-outs, splashback height and access to your kitchen. A first-floor flat with no lift adds labour. A good quote lists each line. If a quote only shows a single number per square metre, ask for the breakdown before paying a deposit.
Joints, seams, and what to expect
Stone joints are filled with colour matched resin and are usually 2 to 3 mm wide. A good joint is smooth, tight, and hard to see at standing height. Laminate joints use a worktop connector strip and are more visible. Ask how many joints your layout needs, since long spans over 3 metres usually require at least one seam.
