Measuring for granite kitchen worktops is quite an easy task that you can do on your own in order to get an idea on prices and how much granite you will need. Keep in mind that the back wall dimensions of the required work surfaces should be also be measured. You might want to take measurements in inches and in millimeters (mm) / centimetres (cm).

Before you measure your kitchen worktop, decide first on the depth of the worktops from front to back. Analyse the overhang you think youll need both at the front and on the ends of the worktop and make sure that you consider the appliances that you will need (for example, washing machines and dishwashers) when you measure the depth. This is because these areas sometimes protrude out further than the kitchen units. Overhangs usually range from 2 to 4 centimetres but you must decide based on your own kitchen needs.

Keep in mind also that when measuring, the walls may not be straight and true and there may be a slight discrepancy on the length from the front of the worktop to the back wall. If this is the case, always provide the longer of the two measurements to your supplier they can get exact measurements later if required.

Carefully think about which way you want your kitchen worktop joints to run. Remember though to keep the joints as far away as possible from heat and water sources like your cooker and sinks. Your granite worktop supplier can give you advice and help on this if required.

These are the basic steps you need to take in order to measure your kitchen worktop and get a quote and price-up your new worktop. But if you want to save yourself all the hassle and worry of getting exact measurements , remember that most good worktop suppliers will personally come to your home and do the exact measurements for you. Some suppliers even provide useful tools like surface planners that you can complete when you get a granite worktop quote.About the Author:
