Had a look at the B&Q kitchens.
My main concern is with fitting the work surface myself, cutting it to be precise.
We were looking at something called speedstone which looks like a type of stone laminate, so particleboard with a 15mm layer of stone-type compound on top.
Has anyone dealt with this material before? B&Q were telling me that if I use their fitting service they can manufacture the surface in one piece such that there is no join at the 90-degree turn. Just one seamless piece of worktop which is very appealing but they said fitting starts from £3,500 so that's out of the window.
I figured that a day-rate of £150/day for 2 blokes is 2k for 7 days if they did everything so £3,500 is a p****d!
Am I wrong?
What about this speedstone? Easy enough to cut?
