RECENT PROJECTS
Kitchen Worktops Leicester: Understanding the Local Property Landscape
Leicester is a city of remarkable contrasts. From the handsome Victorian terraces of Stoneygate and Clarendon Park to the sleek new-build apartments along the waterside, the variety of homes here calls for a genuinely flexible approach to kitchen design. We have fitted worktops in grand Edwardian semis where the kitchen needed to feel in keeping with original period features, and we have worked on ultra-modern open-plan schemes in the city’s newer developments around the Waterside regeneration area and Hamilton.
What strikes us most about working in Leicester is how much the local property market has grown in recent years. Young professionals are buying in areas like Clarendon Park and the West End, often renovating older properties and turning tired kitchens into the centrepiece of the home. For these projects, quartz worktops are far and away the most popular choice. They handle the demands of a busy household without needing sealing or special maintenance, and the range of colours available means there is something to suit every taste, from cool Carrara-inspired veining to warm concrete tones.
In the more established parts of Leicestershire, including Oadby, Kibworth, and Market Harborough, we regularly install granite worktops and marble surfaces in larger family kitchens. These natural stones bring character and individuality that simply cannot be replicated, and they tend to appeal to homeowners who want their kitchen to feel truly one of a kind.
Although we are based in Thame, Oxfordshire, we regularly travel to Leicester and across Leicestershire for templating and installation. The journey takes us around an hour and a half, and we treat every Leicester project with the same care and attention as those on our doorstep. There is no additional charge for our visit, and we bring all templating equipment with us so we can measure your kitchen precisely on site.
Popular Worktop Choices in Leicester
- Quartz Worktops – The most popular choice among Leicester homeowners. Engineered for durability, stain resistance, and low maintenance. Available in a vast range of colours and patterns. Prices start from around £250 per square metre, depending on the brand and finish selected. If you are weighing up your options, our granite vs quartz guide is worth a read.
- Granite Worktops – A natural stone with unique veining and depth of colour that no two slabs share. Exceptionally hard-wearing and heat resistant. Prices typically start from around £300 per square metre. Granite remains a firm favourite for traditional and transitional kitchen designs across Leicester.
- Marble Worktops – The luxury option for those who want a truly show-stopping surface. Marble brings warmth, elegance, and timeless style to any kitchen. It does require a little more care than quartz or granite, but many of our Leicester clients feel the beauty is well worth it.

Frequently Asked Questions: Worktops in Leicester
Do you offer free measurements and quotes for Leicester properties?
Yes, absolutely. We visit homes across Leicester and Leicestershire to template your kitchen at no cost and with no obligation. This ensures your worktops are cut to a perfect fit, accounting for any irregularities in your walls or cabinetry. Simply give us a ring on 01844 698 821 or drop us an email at info@ipstone.co.uk to arrange a convenient time.
How long does it take to fit new kitchen worktops in Leicester?
Once your worktops have been templated and fabricated, installation typically takes a single day. The full process from initial measurement to fitting usually runs around two to three weeks, though we can sometimes accommodate tighter timescales if needed. We always aim to cause as little disruption to your household as possible.
Can you match worktops to my existing kitchen cabinets and splashbacks?
Of course. We work with over 100 colours and finishes, so there is almost always a stone that complements your existing cabinetry, flooring, and splashback tiles. We encourage clients to request samples so they can hold the stone against their kitchen units before making a final decision. It is one of the advantages of our personal, hands-on approach.
