Average Installation cost in Dunstable

These figures are estimated ranges based on current UK trade pricing and published cost guides from Checkatrade and MyBuilder (July 2026). Your actual quote will depend on kitchen size, material choice, and any extras such as cut-outs or upstands. Full worktop installation (supply and fit): Laminate runs from £600 to £1,200 for a typical kitchen. Quartz or granite comes in at £1,500 to £3,800 for a standard kitchen run. Dunstable's pricing sits in the competitive Bedfordshire market, generally lower than London and the Home Counties to the south. Worktop replacement only (existing cabinets, like-for-like swap): Labour and templating only with the customer supplying material costs £300 to £580. Stone replacement on existing carcasses, fully fitted, starts around £800 to £1,500. Worktop repair (chip, crack or scratch resurfacing): Minor laminate repair runs £80 to £150. Stone chip or crack repair is £150 to £330, depending on the damage and access. Templating or measuring visit (if charged separately): Typically £130 to £270 in the LU5 and LU6 area. Both businesses are within a short drive of Dunstable town centre. Confirm whether templating is included when you first enquire. Removal and disposal of old worktop: Around £80 to £190 added to the fitting job. Stone worktops cost more to remove due to weight.

Types of Materials found in Dunstable

Quartz is the most popular stone worktop upgrade across LU5 and LU6. The post-war semis and terraces that make up most of Dunstable's housing stock are being refitted by owner-occupiers upgrading from older surfaces, and quartz is consistently the first choice. It does not need sealing and is available in a wide price range. Installed prices run from around £340 to £510 per square metre. Imperial Stone Group at Kensworth LU6 covers quartz supply and installation for the Dunstable area with a 5-star review record. Granite is chosen in the larger detached properties around Dunstable and in the Chiltern villages nearby, where homeowners want the natural variation and heat resistance of real stone. Installed granite costs between £300 and £570 per square metre for standard varieties. Both Imperial Stone Group and Mega Marble cover granite as part of their stone range for the LU postcode area. Mega Marble Ltd in Houghton Regis, as the name suggests, covers marble alongside granite and quartz. Marble is occasionally specified for kitchen islands or utility rooms in higher-specification properties. It requires careful sealing and is susceptible to acidic liquids, so it is worth discussing the practicalities with Mega Marble before committing if marble is on your shortlist.
