Bespoke worktops need decisions before templating
Made-to-measure worktops can look excellent, but they leave less room for late changes. The sink, hob, tap, overhangs and joins should all be agreed before templating.
Checklist
- Confirm material thickness, edge profile and finish.
- Decide sink type, drainer grooves and tap hole positions.
- Check appliance instructions for hob and ventilation clearances.
- Agree where joins will sit.
HIP Toolbox tip
Do not book templating until base units are fixed, level and in their final position.
