If you are re-thinking the design for your current kitchen or are creating a space

with a blank canvas in a new-build home, you will want to achieve the perfect combination of functionality and aesthetic co-ordination with the surface material and the cabinetry.

Quartz is a highly durable and visually stunning stone which has been engineered by combining crushed quartz crystals with other minerals and polymer resins, resulting in a product which is easy to clean and resistant to stains without the need to apply a sealant. This non-porosity provides an ideal work platform for maintaining a hygienic environment in the kitchen, restricting the growth of mould or harmful bacteria. Although quartz kitchen worktops are fabricated from a man-made material, it’s common to mistake the appearance with natural stones such as granite or marble as the advanced engineering techniques are applied to create nature inspired textures and veining, with warm earthy tones, feel-good hues and cooler palettes for contemporary living. By injecting dyes into the stone during manufacture at the same time as the resin the colour spectrum and visual affects are breathtaking. The stock range of quartz slabs can be viewed at the Affordable Granite workshops in Charlwood, Surrey by prior appointment with professional advice on hand to assist in your selection.    

 

  

Affordable Granite have been providing an end-to-end service since 2003 in the manufacture, supply and installation of high grade stone kitchen worktops in Reigate, the surrounding South East counties and beyond.

The perfect paring with granite kitchen worktops in Guildford

Choosing the right surface for your kitchen base units is key to creating the overall design scheme which will complement your living style. Granite kitchen worktops are the perfect pairing for the traditional or contemporary kitchen space, capturing the defining feature which will provide the desired wow factor.

If you are considering installing granite kitchen worktops in Guildford you may be under the assumption that as a luxury stone this will be outside of your budget. Although rarer examples of granite do come at a premium cost, Affordable Granite are able to supply their stock granite range at competitive prices without sacrificing quality, by purchasing stone in bulk from trusted wholesalers.

 

 

 

For those with a love of the original, each slab of granite will be a unique reflection of the mineral content present beneath the Earth’s surface at the time the molten rock cooled and solidified within the geographical site from which it was extracted. This provenance results in a myriad of colour hues, patterns and striations with distinct characteristics which can never be repeated and often vary even within the same granite slab. Due to this uniqueness, Affordable Granite advise customers to view the stone by appointment at their workshops in Charlwood, Surrey to ensure they are selecting the slabs which will meet all their aspirations for the new kitchen.

 

Granite is extremely dense and durable which makes it a long-term investment and as a low-maintenance product it’s ideal for preparing food and maintaining hygienic work surfaces in a busy kitchen. Although this natural stone has a degree of porosity, application with a resin sealant during manufacture will protect from liquid seepage and can be easily re-applied at home when required.

Affordable Granite provide a full supply and installation service in Guildford and the South East of England. This includes a transparent estimate of costs and templating of the base units for precise measurements before the highly skilled stonemasons will cut and polish the selected stone, enhancing the natural beauty. Final installations are carried out by the in-house team and never subcontracted, guaranteeing that the same close attention to detail and high level of craftsmanship is maintained throughout.

Endless inspiration with Granite Kitchen Worktops in Brighton

For many of us lock-down living has prompted a re-think about how different elements of our lives have merged into a more flexible home style. The kitchen in particular has become a multi-functional hub, with break-out areas and designated zones for working or studying from home. When choosing the work surfaces for the designated space, both the aesthetic and practical characteristics should be considered carefully to ensure you not only have a visually stunning kitchen area, it will also withstand the practical tasks and daily use in a busy home. For those with a passion for the original, installing granite kitchen worktops in Brighton provides endless inspiration to create a style statement reflecting the home personality. The extensive colour palette and speckles or veining in the stone gives the opportunity to create any interior design scheme to compliment the chic and contemporary kitchen or a more traditional vintage vibe.

 

 

Granite is a product of nature, formed deeply within the Earth’s crust from cooling magma with the colours and patterns reflecting the mineral content present at the time in the geographical location from which it has been extracted. Generally, granite consists mainly of quartz, feldspar and mica combined with other trace minerals. This  results in each granite slab being unique, with a variance in shading and striations even within the length of the custom fabricated polished stone. Many customers find that this enhances the visual appeal, capturing a moment in time and showcasing the natural beauty and origins.

 

On a practical note, Granite is an extremely durable stone and once sealed with a protective coating during fabrication the natural porosity of the surface is reduced, providing a hygienic and stain-resistant platform for food preparation. Providing acidic spillages or strongly coloured food residue are not left to sit on the granite worktop the condition of the stone can be easily maintained. Re-sealing when necessary with Affordable Granite’s recommended home-care products will ensure the surface retains its original beauty for many years to come.   

 

Affordable Granite is a family owned Surrey-based stone fabricator and installer established in 2003, with an enviable reputation throughout the South East of England for excellent customer service and cost-effective prices to suit most budgets. The highest quality is assured throughout the journey from quarry to kitchen, with all templating and installation carried out by in-house craftsmen and is never subcontracted. Your granite kitchen worktops in Brighton will be a long term investment and the Affordable Granite team are always on hand with professional advice to ensure you achieve the kitchen which meets all your aspirations within your available budget.

Welcome home to quartz kitchen worktops in Horsham

 

No longer are kitchens commonly hidden behind a closed door independent from the rest of the home and over time kitchens have evolved into a multi-use living space. This has led to the kitchen being the most important room when it comes to not only reflecting the home lifestyle, but also the re-sale value and long-term investment for a return on expenditure.

Engineered with the use of advanced technology, your quartz kitchen worktops will contain a high percentage of pulverised quartz crystals combined with polymer binding resins and coloured pigments. This provides the benefits of a stone which is durable, visually stunning and due to the resin content, is impervious to liquid seepage and stains. The result is a kitchen work surface which doesn’t require periodic sealing and is the perfect hygienic platform for food preparation, informal dining and with the resistance to bacterial growth and spillages, quartz is child-friendly when eating at an island or peninsula unit.

 

Quartzcountertops in Horsham reflect the personality within the home, with colour and patterns mimicking those found in granite and marble.

Game-changing granite kitchen worktops in Haywards Heath

Have you found your ideal home, but the kitchen area just isn’t compatible with your lifestyle or design scheme? Granite kitchen worktops in Haywards Heath provide a game-changing opportunity to create an aesthetically pleasing and hard-wearing kitchen space, which will also be a wise investment should you choose to move on in the future.

  

Granite is without doubt a luxury stone with outstanding natural beauty, reflecting the minerals present in the global location where it was formed under extreme pressure from molten rock cooling deep within the Earth’s crust. This results in a vast spectrum of shades and visual affects, with stunning speckles and veining. For anyone with a passion for originality, the granite chosen for your kitchen worktops will be unique and even within the same slab the colours and striations can vary due to the organic nature of the stone.

This extensive colour palette allows a wide scope for creating an interior design scheme to suit all kitchen dimensions and cabinet lay-out. Light reflection and a sense of space can be achieved in a small kitchen by using paler shades of granite, while larger open-plan kitchen/living areas and focal island units provide the freedom to select a granite which is an expression of your home lifestyle and personality. Affordable Granite hold a large selection of granite in stock at their workshops in Charlwood, Surrey and recommend customers to arrange an appointment to view the stone in person, as reassurance they are happy with the colour and any natural variance in pattern running through the slabs.

 

When considering the practical day-to-day use of a granite countertop, this makes for a highly durable and long-lasting surface which will stand the test of time. Most modern kitchens have evolved as a multi-use space, not only for food preparation but also serving as a gathering hub for entertaining guests and casual dining. Granite has a level of natural porosity, but as the stone is sealed with a protective coating in the Affordable Granite workshop before installation, this gives the surface protection from spills or bacteria growth and can be easily re-applied at home when necessary.

 

AffordableGranite are the leading installers of stone kitchen worktops in Sussex, Surrey and throughout the South East of England, providing high quality stone at prices to suit all budgets. Customers can benefit from the discounts the company achieves by purchasing in bulk from only trusted suppliers.
