Quartz Countertop Cost Calculator
Estimate engineered quartz counters from slab area, grade, edge detail, and cutouts — including optional tear-out of old tops. Click any i for detail.

Counter area (sq ft)
i
Counter area
Sum length × depth of each run (often 25.5 in deep). Include islands. Templating will refine this number. |

|---|---|
Quartz grade
i
Quartz grade
Standard colors are widely stocked. Mid-grade adds popular patterns. Premium/exotic slabs carry higher material cost. |
|
Edge profile
i
Edge profile
Eased edges are usually included in the base rate. Bevels and ogee profiles add fabrication time per linear foot. |
|
Sink cutouts
i
Sink cutouts
Each undermount or drop-in cutout needs fabrication and polishing time. |

Your state
Scales midpoints for typical state-level labor and material costs versus the U.S. average — not an on-site bid. |
Options
How to use this calculator
- Enter approximate counter square footage.
- Choose slab grade and edge profile.
- Add sink (and optional cooktop) cutouts.
- Toggle old-counter removal and select your state.
Results explained
Installed $/sq ft is split into slab materials (~62%) and fabrication/install (~38%). Edges, cutouts, and removal are separate lines.

| Grade | Installed $/sf | Edge adder | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $55 | Eased included | Popular stock colors |
| Mid-grade | $75 | +$12/lf bevel | Common upgrade tier |
| Premium | $105 | +$28/lf complex | Limited patterns |
| Sink cutout | $175 each | — | Undermount polish time |
Old counter removal ≈ $8/sq ft. Backsplash slabs and plumbing reconnect are extras.
How the estimate is built
Total ≈ sf × grade $/sf (split materials/labor) + edge lf × profile rate + cutouts + removal, × state. Band ≈ 85%–125%.
Example scenario
Forty-five sq ft of mid-grade quartz with one sink cutout and removal at U.S. average is about $75 × 45 = $3,375 + $175 cutout + $360 removal ≈ $3,910.
FAQ
Is templating included?
Field measure/template is usually inside the install midpoint; rush re-templates after cabinet changes can add fees.
Quartz vs granite?
This page is quartz-only. Granite pricing and sealing needs differ.
Can seams be invisible?
Seams are normal on long runs; color match varies by pattern — ask to see a seam sample.
