Our Installation Story

This project in

Norfolk, United Kingdom

was different from popular granite jobs we often did. Unlike regular black granites, our client wanted something that would immediately grab the viewers' attention but also be functional enough for a long-lasting kitchen in a permanent British home. It had to be Cosmic Black Granite! What immediately stood out during planning was the dramatic patterning running through the slabs. Unlike uniform black stones, Cosmic Black features sweeping mineral movement that creates depth and visual interest from every angle. Stay tuned till the end for this installation story.

The Challenge

Problems and Set of Solutions Faced During This Project

If you are considering Black Cosmic Granite for your next kitchen project, some of these challenges may sound familiar. Here are a few practical situations we encountered and how they were successfully resolved.

The Problem
Even minor wall irregularities can become noticeable when working with polished granite surfaces and modern kitchen cabinetry.
How We Solved It
Digital templating allowed us to identify subtle inconsistencies before manufacturing began. During installation, careful scribing techniques were used where necessary to maintain tight joints and clean transitions.
The Problem
Black Cosmic Granite contains dramatic flowing mineral movement that can easily appear disconnected if slab layout is not carefully planned across different worktop sections.
How We Solved It
Before fabrication began, the entire kitchen layout was digitally mapped against the slab. This allowed us to determine where key features of the pattern would appear once installed. Priority was given to highly visible areas such as the island and main preparation zones. By carefully sequencing cuts and planning joint locations, we preserved the natural movement within the stone. The result created a much more cohesive appearance throughout the kitchen, allowing the granite to feel intentional rather than fragmented.
The Problem
The island formed the centrepiece of the kitchen and required a substantial granite section. Due to the weight of natural stone, proper support and handling became important considerations.
How We Solved It
The island dimensions were reviewed during the planning stage to ensure suitable structural support beneath the granite. We paid extra attention during fabrication in order to maintain strength around vulnerable areas. Our team used specialist lifting equipment to position the slab safely and accurately.
The Problem
The kitchen incorporated several appliance cut-outs that needed to be accurately positioned without disrupting the stone's most attractive features.
How We Solved It
Detailed templating ensured every appliance location was captured before fabrication commenced. Cut-outs were planned carefully so they integrated naturally within the pattern rather than interrupting key visual areas.
Final Outcome — The completed kitchen successfully balances practicality with visual impact. The dramatic movement within the Black Cosmic Granite introduces character and depth throughout the space, while careful fabrication and installation ensure every detail feels refined and purposeful.
