Quartz & Granite Worktops in Brighton and Hove
Quartz and granite worktop installation is the process of templating a kitchen on site after the units are fitted, then manufacturing and fitting a stone or engineered-stone worktop cut precisely to that template, including cut-outs for sinks, hobs and upstands.
In Brighton and Hove, that covers Kemp Town, Hove, Preston Park, Hanover, Seven Dials, Fiveways, Patcham, Portslade. Brighton and Hove is known for its Regency architecture, extensive Victorian terraced housing, and later 20th-century development, all within a compact coastal city where many properties are in conservation areas and a significant number are listed.

Property styles in Brighton and Hove
Regency squares and terraces are concentrated around Brunswick, Kemp Town and the seafront, with dense Victorian terraced housing across much of the wider city, and later suburban housing further from the centre. Basement conversions, loft conversions and rear extensions are common project types on the terraced stock, subject to conservation area and party wall considerations.
Planning considerations
Brighton & Hove City Council is the local planning authority. The city has one of the highest concentrations of conservation areas of any local authority in the South East, and many properties are listed, particularly in the Regency squares. Basement work also requires careful consideration of structural and drainage issues in a dense urban setting.

FAQs
Quartz & Granite Worktops in Brighton and Hove: FAQs
Do you provide quartz & granite worktops across all of Brighton and Hove?
Yes, we cover the BN1, BN2 and BN3 postcode areas in full, including Kemp Town, Hove, Preston Park, Hanover, Seven Dials, Fiveways, Patcham, Portslade.
Why does the worktop need templating instead of just measuring from the drawings?
Kitchen units and walls are rarely perfectly square, so a template taken on site after the units are fitted ensures the stone is cut to the room's actual dimensions rather than the drawing's theoretical ones — this is standard practice for stone worktops.
How long after templating will the worktop be fitted?
This depends on the fabricator's workload and the stone chosen, but it's typically one to two weeks between templating and fitting. We confirm the lead time when the order is placed.
Can I extend a listed Regency property in Brighton?
Alterations to listed buildings require listed building consent in addition to any planning permission, and the historic character of Regency terraces means proposals are considered carefully. We assess feasibility on a case-by-case basis.
