"Yanez did an exceptional job replacing my laminate countertop with granite. I had gotten estimates from Home Depot and Lowes, which were a lot more expensive and for some reason involved weeks of preparation before the work could be done. Yanez completed the measurements and helped me choose an attractive sink and faucet. within a week he installed a beautiful granite countertop as well as repairing a cracked floor sash with the same granite as a finishing touch the same day. He was polite and respectful of my property and cleaned up well after the work was done."

"Bryan has proven to be the epitome of honesty and customer service which is a rarity in today’s market. He was not only punctual; but explained exactly what had to be done to remove the residue of super glue on our quartz countertop. He quoted me a price; and accepted exactly what was needed for this small job. If anyone has an issue with their countertops rest assured Bryan is your guy! I also got calls from others but never had the courtesy to return my call. Bryan not only returns calls; in addition he’s professional and leaves NO mess for you to clean up! I highly recommend him for any kind of stone repair… grout issues or refinishing a countertop!"

"Eddie was great to work with! We had a limited time frame to adhere to town inspections and Eddie and his team knew exactly what we needed and quickly got the job done. The results were great and even the inspector acknowledged the impressive repair. They were able to put a knocked out garage wall back on the foundation and repair the interior dry wall. I would recommend this company for any professional contract work due to their reasonable price, ease to work with and quality of work."

Countertops and Backsplashes FAQs, answered by experts

Granite countertops cost an average of $3,250 compared to $2,250 for tile countertops. Granite is also harder to DIY than tile, given its weight and bulk, which increases the overall labor cost of installation. Over time, both types of countertops may need sealing to remain resistant to water, heat, and other common kitchen elements.

The timeline to install countertops largely depends on the materials and the job size. Installing granite countertops takes anywhere from two to seven hours, though complex designs can pass the eight hour mark. Average-sized quartz countertops take two to five hours to install, though most pros will recommend a 24-hour settling period. Marble, on the other hand, is finicky and can take up to two whole days to install. No matter how you slice it, however, a professional is going to complete the job much quicker than an amateur.

New countertops can last for anywhere between 15 and 50 years, with the exact lifespan depending on the material:

  • Quartz: 50 to 100 years

  • Marble: 50 to 100 years

  • Granite: 50 to 100 years

  • Laminate: 15 to 20 years

  • Concrete: 20 to 30 years

  • Tile: 40 to 100 years

Keep in mind some materials are more likely to stain and chip than others, which is an important factor to consider when it comes to the longevity of your countertops. Some materials also need special cleaning and maintenance, like tile countertops, which need grout cleaning, and concrete countertops, which need resealing.

The easiest way to calculate a countertop's square footage is to divide your countertop into squares and rectangles, then multiply the length and the width of each piece in inches before adding them together and dividing by 144.

Caesarstone® offers both quartz and porcelain counters, which are types of engineered stone countertops. Generally, you can expect to pay $50 to $200 per square foot for quartz countertops. If you decide to go with Caesarstone® quartz counters, then you’ll pay $75 to $125 per square foot, which is in the mid-range of what most quartz manufacturers charge.

Additionally, Caesarstone® is typically less expensive than quartzite, which is a natural quartz countertop that costs $80 to $220 per square foot. Depending on the Caesarstone® countertop you choose, you may spend significantly more on quartzite counters.
