Measuring for a marble worktop requires careful and precise calculation to ensure that the surface you are installing fits perfectly and is tailored to your design needs. Here are the steps to measure for a marble worktop:

1. Start by measuring the dimensions of the space where you plan to install the marble worktop. Measure the length, width, and depth, noting down the measurements in inches or centimetres.

2. Take into account any objects or furniture within the room that could obstruct or interfere with the installation of the marble worktop. Make sure to measure around these objects, as well as the distance between them and the intended installation area.

3. If you are ordering custom-cut marble worktops, your measurements must be extremely precise. Make sure to measure twice and round up when you record the measurements to ensure that the marble worktop will fit exactly.

4. Draw a sketch of the area to be covered with the marble worktop. This can help you visualise how the piece will look once installed and can also aid in ensuring that all measurements are correct.

5. Once you have your measurements and sketch, contact us to confirm the measurements and provide a quote for the job. We can also advise you on the best type of marble worktop for your needs and if needs be, measure-up for you.

Depending on availability of materials, we typically say that installation can be done within 7 to 10 working days from date of order. Sometimes it can be quicker or longer, this will depend on the size and complexity of the job, generally. But the above is a good rule of thumb.
