Replacement Worktops Kent

"Is it worth replacing my kitchen worktop instead of a full renovation?"

For many, a full kitchen renovation can be quite daunting. That's why at Henderstone, we appreciate the value of simply upgrading your worktops. The effect is similar, adding a new lease of life into your space, at a fraction of the cost. Homeowners up and down Kent are starting to invest in premium worktop replacements for several reasons: to improve the durability of their surface, enhance the aesthetics of their home, and increase property value for future resale. 

DIY and home improvement projects have been on the rise ever since the pandemic, and we are seeing no signs of it slowing down any time soon. Worktop replacements have, over time, become an appealing, cost-effective way to revamp kitchens across the county without major construction. 

It can be tough to decide on the best material for your kitchen worktops, with so many options available to choose from. It's important to consider what benefits will factor into your lifestyle and how the surface will be used. For example, busy family households may find that durable and stain-resistant quartz is for them, whereas, a more high-end, and aesthetic based space may opt for a natural stone such as marble. Let's take a deeper dive into the materials we offer and their pros and cons: 

It is certainly a cost-effective choice to opt for worktop replacement instead of complete renovation, but we understand that cost is still an important factor when deciding which to go for. Here is a breakdown of the average price and lifespan of the stones that we have to offer: 

"Which worktop is best for resale value?"

When it comes to choosing the best worktop material for resale value, durability, aesthetics, and long-term appeal are key factors. 

• Quartz worktops are popular due to their non-porous surface, and large range of colours and patterns; they are a practical investment that retains its appeal over time
• Granite worktops offer a premium look with exceptional durability; this material's reputation for longevity makes it an attractive feature for potential buyers
• Porcelain has emerged in recent years, and offers a thin-profile, and UV stability, making them a modern contender for upcoming buyers 
• Marble worktops exude timeless luxury but may not be the best option when it comes to maximising resale value; they require a lot more maintenance than other stones

For most projects, quartz and granite are the optimal choices for offering great ROI for property value

All-in-all, the process is as efficient as possible, creating a stress-free process for both you and us. We carry out installation 7-10 working days after templating, giving our fabricators enough time to curate your worktops to perfection. Time scales are organised to exact dates once you confirm you would like to go ahead with your quote, when we will also request a 50% deposit as standard.
