Stone Countertops questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

Quartzite countertops are porous, meaning that liquids can seep into the stone and stain them. You’ll need to seal them before installing and resealing annually, depending on use and stone material. Sealing will help prevent stains and etching. On the other hand, you don’t need to seal quartz and other engineered stone countertops since they aren’t porous.

Consider how much and in what way you'll be using your marble countertops. Untreated marble can stain easily and even change color slowly over time. If you're worried about bathroom chemicals or extensive meal prep, opt for a type of marble with more protection against spills.

When it comes to the cost of your marble installation, consider the slab's thickness, overall size, and necessary cutouts for sinks and cabinetry.

A countertop contractor is the best person to install your quartz countertop. Because installing quartz countertops can be challenging, it’s important to consult a professional with experience installing quartz slabs to get the job done right. Repairing quartz countertops can be expensive, so it’s important to hire a professional to avoid damage.

For most homeowners, quartz and quartzite countertops are similar in price. The average quartz countertop installation costs $80 to $220 per square foot, while quartz countertops cost $70 to $200 per square foot. Of course, there are outliers, like if you choose a highly customized, rare natural stone with high-end finishes.
