We are a family-run business with over 30 years in the worktop trade. We template, make and fit solid surface, quartz and porcelain from our workshop in Chatham, and we are usually on site in Kent, Surrey, Sussex or London by the time you read this.
Twenty-eight years ago we templated with hardboard and a jigsaw. Today a digital laser records the room to the millimetre, including the walls that are not quite straight and the reveal that is not quite square. The old worktops stay in place, the kitchen stays clean, and the file goes straight to the saw.
The workshop
Unit 5, The Craft Workshops
Our workshop sits inside the Historic Dockyard at Chatham, among boatbuilders, joiners and other makers. It is where every sheet of Corian, Hanex, HIMACS, Durasein and Artemis is cut, bonded and polished, and where quartz and porcelain are finished before fitting. Visits are by appointment, so there is always someone free to walk you through samples, edges and sink options. Bring your plan; we will bring the kettle.Unit 5, The Craft Workshops, The Historic Dockyard, Chatham ME4 4TZ. Map

Four things we will not compromise on
Measure it properly A worktop is only as good as the template. We measure with a laser, in person, every time.
Make it ourselves Nothing leaves the Dockyard that we did not cut, bond and polish. No outsourced fabrication.
Fit what we make The people who made your top are the people who carry it in and fit it. That is where thirty years shows.
Say what it costs Plain quotes, no sales visits. If a cheaper material will do the job we will tell you.
Where we work
Every worktop is made at The Historic Dockyard in Chatham and fitted by the people who made it. Pick an area for towns, travel times and local jobs.
The people
The people who measure, make and fit
A small family team. The person who templates your kitchen is the person who makes the tops and the person who fits them.
