Quartz Countertop Cost Calculator: Easily Plan Your Remodel Project

When planning your kitchen remodel it’s important to know how much each aspect of the project will cost. This quartz countertop cost calculator was designed to make it easy to find out how much you’ll pay based on the amount of material needed.

How The Quartz Countertop Cost Calculator Works

To find out how much your new countertops will cost you will first need to consider your kitchen’s layout. Will the countertops shape be rectangular like a standard kitchen island, an L-shape that goes around a corner, or in a U-shape similar to a horseshoe?  

Once you’ve determined the overall shape you’ll want to enter your measurements to get a more precise accounting. To get started , measure the area of the countertops using a tape measure. Write down the length and width and if you have a different shape than rectangular you’ll need to jot down the measurements of those sections as well.

Now, you’ll want to choose the quality of your quartz material. Here’s a breakdown of the prices the tool uses:

• Standard $40-60 per square foot. This is a basic option for those on a budget or to install in a rental unit.
• Premium $60-100 per square foot. This level offers more colors, and is the most common pick for homeowners.
• Luxury $100-150 per square foot. For more unique colors, and unique patterns.

Next you’ll want to pick your edge style, which will be based on the overall style of your kitchen and personal preference. Here’s a quick breakdown on the edge styles available to choose from.

• Straight edge gives a clean and stylish look. (modern & minimalist styles)
• Beveled edge adds $10 per foot to the price, and has a slight angle. (transitional & contemporary)
• Bullnose edge  adds $15 per foot to the price, and is smooth and rounded. (Traditional & family-friendly designs)
• Ogee edge adds $20 per foot to the price and is a fancy curved design. (Classic, rustic & elegant)

Finally, the calculator offers the ability to select extra optional features. Here’s a quick list of upgrades you may want.

• Need holes cut for your sink? Add $200
• Want a hole for your stovetop? Add $200
• Want a backsplash? Add $15 per foot
