What worktop replacement includes
-
Measuring up
We measure on the units or make a template so the worktop fits uneven walls.
-
Removing the old one
We disconnect the hob and tap, take the worktop off and remove it from your home.
-
Your choice of material
Laminate, timber, porcelain, quartz or granite, depending on use and style.
-
Cut-outs and edges
Cut-outs for sink and hob, with polished edges and undermounting if you prefer.
-
Reconnection
We refit tap, sink and hob and check that there are no leaks.
-
Sealing and upstand
Sanitary silicone along the wall and an upstand or splashback to match.
Replacing a worktop in Ciutat Vella, step by step
Areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval have many 1960s and 70s kitchens with solid units and a marble or granite worktop stuck to the tiles. Removing it often cracks a few tiles, so we plan an upstand or a new splashback to cover that strip.
To finish, in homes in areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera, we close the wall joint with a matching upstand or splashback, fill the joints between sections with colour-matched resin and reconnect hob, tap and waste, testing each one in turn.
On the visit we measure, check the units are level and talk you through the materials; the quote follows in writing with every item listed. We also replace worktops in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions
01Kitchen worktop replacement in Ciutat Vella: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Ciutat Vella, in areas such as El Barri Gòtic, El Raval, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina, La Ribera and La Barceloneta, and also nearby: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Can the worktop be replaced without changing the units?
Yes, if the units are level and in good condition. We check they can take the weight of the chosen material, especially stone or thick porcelain.
03Which material stands up to heat and knives?
Porcelain and granite handle heat and scratches well. Quartz is very hard-wearing, though it is wise not to put pans on it straight from the hob. During the visit we compare options with the way you cook.
04Does the tiled splashback have to change too?
Not always. If the new thickness leaves a visible strip, or tiles break when the old worktop comes off, we finish it with an upstand or splashback in the same material.
