01 — Materials

Four families of stone.
One honest opinion on which is right for you.

We'll never push the most expensive option. Ryan will sit at your kitchen table with samples and tell you, plainly, what will work for the way you actually cook.

Granite

Igneous, heavy, almost indestructible. Best for households that genuinely use the kitchen — slate boards, hot pans, kids.

A craft, not a catalogue

The two people who quote you
are the two people who fit it.

NC Worksurfaces isn't a showroom that subcontracts the hard bits out. Ryan templates. Lee cuts. Both of them fit. That's why the kitchen you saw on Instagram is the kitchen that arrives in your house.

We turn down jobs we can't do properly. We tell you when an edge profile will chip. We arrive when we said we would, and we don't leave until you've run your hand along the joint and agreed it's invisible.

"Six months after fit we had a tiny hairline crack — Ryan was out the next morning with a replacement piece, no quibble. Service was brilliant. Would absolutely recommend."

06 — Frequently asked

The questions Ryan answers every week.

How long from quote to fitted?

Two-to-three weeks is typical. We template once your cabinets are level and fixed, then fabricate in our Leeds workshop in 7–10 working days. Fit-day is usually one day on site, occasionally two for large islands or porcelain wraparounds.

Do you template before the kitchen is in?

No — and please don't trust anyone who offers to. Cabinet positions move during fitting, and a 5mm shift at the back wall becomes a 5mm gap in your worktop. We template when units are fixed, doors hung, and you're ready to flip the kettle on.

Can you cut sink and hob holes on site?

We don't, and we'd urge you not to let anyone else. Every sink, hob, tap and socket cut-out is CNC-machined in our workshop against your appliance specs. Cutting stone on site means dust, vibration and a much higher chance of chipping the slab.

What about radius corners on islands?

Standard. We can do 90°, soft 5–10mm radius, full bullnose, mitred 90° (for the "thick slab" look) and waterfall edges down to the floor. We'll talk through the options when you visit the workshop.

Do you do bathroom vanities and fireplaces?

Yes, regularly. Vanity tops, hearths, window sills, splashbacks, even reception desks for commercial fit-outs. Anything stone, we'll quote it.

Where do you cover?

Across West Yorkshire as standard — Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Halifax, Huddersfield, Harrogate, York and surrounding villages. We'll travel further for the right project; ask.
