Quartzite countertops cost an average of $3,950 for 30 square feet, per HomeAdvisor’s 2026 data, with its posted normal range at $2,000 to $5,200.2 Angi publishes the same $2,000 to $5,200 range and the same $80 to $220 per-square-foot installed price — the two are corporate siblings, and matching figures alone don’t establish independent corroboration.1,2 HomeGuide prices quartzite installed at $65 to $150 per square foot, Fixr puts the national average at $4,200, and Marble.com quotes a $90 per-square-foot average.3,4,5 Figures below are the latest published national figures* from each source.
*National figures, not local quotes. Angi was updated July 9, 2026; HomeAdvisor was updated June 19, 2026; HomeGuide was last dated December 14, 2023; Fixr was updated August 29, 2025; Marble.com was last updated January 1, 2026. Your price depends on the quartzite variety and rarity, slab size, edge profile and finish, and local labor.

Angi and HomeAdvisor publish the same per-square-foot installed price, labor rates, edge table, and finish surcharges — matching figures alone don’t establish independent corroboration.1,2 HomeAdvisor’s own page gives two project ranges: a $2,000 to $5,200 normal-range badge and a $950 to $6,000-or-more range in the body text. The page does not explain the difference, so both appear here.2
What the installed price includes
HomeGuide breaks its $65 to $150 per-square-foot installed price into $50 to $110 for the slab and fabrication, $10 to $30 for installation labor, and $5 to $10 for supplies.3 Fixr breaks its $80 to $210 into $50 to $120 for material and $30 to $90 for fabrication.4 Angi and HomeAdvisor quote $80 to $220 installed, with labor at $10 to $40 per square foot or $45 to $85 per hour, and put labor’s share of the total project at 25% to 35%.1,2 For a 30-square-foot job, Fixr prices installation at $900 to $2,700 of its $4,200 average.4 HomeGuide notes a full quartzite slab runs about 120 by 77 inches (roughly 64 square feet) and costs $3,200 to $7,000 for the material alone, with standard counters cut at 3 cm and economy counters at 1 to 2 cm, which it describes as prone to breakage.3

| Bathroom vanity top (20 x 36 in.) | — | $325 – $750 | — |
| Bar top (16 x 36 in.) | — | $260 – $600 | — |
All three columns are installed pricing, but the totals still differ by source: for an average 30-to-40-square-foot kitchen, Angi and HomeAdvisor quote $2,400 to $8,800, HomeGuide $1,950 to $6,000, and Fixr $2,400 to $6,300 for 30 square feet — overlapping ranges that don’t line up exactly.1,2,3,4 Fixr also prices a mudroom installation at $560 to $2,520.4
Cost by quartzite variety
| Variety (per sq. ft., materials) | Angi / HomeAdvisor | HomeGuide | Fixr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taj Mahal | $90 – $150 | $100 – $220 | $90 – $110 |
| Cristallo | $60 – $130 | $60 – $130 | $80 – $90 |

Angi, HomeAdvisor, and HomeGuide publish matching prices for most varieties, while Fixr’s figures for the same stones sit inside or beside those ranges — Taj Mahal at $90 to $110 versus $90 to $150 (Angi, HomeAdvisor) and $100 to $220 (HomeGuide), and White Princess at $65 to $70 at HomeGuide versus $85 to $95 at the siblings. These are differing estimates for the same named stones.1,2,3,4 HomeGuide labels its variety table “not including installation,” but its FAQ describes Taj Mahal’s $220 and Classic White’s $60 starting price as installed figures — the page applies both scopes to the same price list, so treat the table as materials-only as labeled.3 Angi and HomeAdvisor note that common gray, white, and beige slabs cost less than rare vivid colors, and HomeAdvisor adds that buyers near quarries in eastern South Dakota, southwestern Minnesota, Utah, central Texas, or the Arizona mountains may save about 5% on materials.1,2
Edges and finishes
| Treatment | Cost | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Square or eased edge | standard, no additional cost | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Half bullnose, full bullnose, bevel edge | $10 – $12 per linear ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Ogee, Dupont, quirk edge | $20 – $25 per linear ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Mitre edge | $20 – $25 per linear ft. (Angi, HomeAdvisor); $20 – $45 per linear ft. (HomeGuide) | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide |
| French cove edge | $30 – $35 per linear ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Double bevel, Cole Smith edge | $36 – $40 per linear ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Honed finish | adds $10 – $20 per sq. ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Leathered finish | adds $15 – $25 per sq. ft. | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Polished finish | standard, no additional cost | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
Fixr notes some popular quartzites are sold pre-honed or pre-leathered, which can cost less than having a polished slab re-finished on demand.4
Labor and installation
Angi and HomeAdvisor quote installation labor at $10 to $40 per square foot or $45 to $85 per hour, and HomeAdvisor puts labor for an average kitchen at $600 to $1,500.1,2 HomeGuide quotes $10 to $30 per square foot for installation labor, separate from the $50 to $110 slab-and-fabrication price.3 Fixr prices fabrication at $30 to $90 per square foot and total installation at $900 to $2,700 on a 30-square-foot job — its figures bundle fabrication into the install cost while the other guides break it out, so the per-hour and per-square-foot numbers are not like-for-like.4
Add-ons and extras
| Item | Figure | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Old countertop removal | $50 – $300 (Angi, HomeAdvisor); $50 – $400 (HomeGuide); $50 – $200 (Fixr); often included in the install estimate | Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Fixr |
| Slab delivery | $150 – $200+ if not included | Angi |

| Standard sink / faucet cutout | typically included at no extra cost | Angi, HomeAdvisor |
| Specialty cutout | $45 – $85 per hour, two to five hours | Angi, HomeAdvisor |
| Sink cutout (Fixr) | about $100 each, plus about $400 for the sink and installation | Fixr |
| Cooktop cutout | $200, plus $500 – $1,000 for the cooktop and installation | Fixr |
| Sink replacement | $250 – $600, $1,000+ for high-end | Angi |
| Sealing | $100 – $350 professional, about $20 DIY sealant (Angi); $0.50 – $2.00 per sq. ft. annually (HomeGuide) | Angi, HomeGuide |
| Repairs | $100 – $1,000, average $365 per repair | Angi |
| Backsplash | $15 – $40 per sq. ft., most spend $600 – $1,300 (Angi); about $1,500 average (Fixr) | Angi, Fixr |
| Kitchen island | about $4,000 average; $2,500 – $3,500 prefab | Angi |
Sealing advice differs in stringency: Angi and HomeGuide recommend annual resealing, while Fixr says some quartzites need no sealer at all and suggests a lemon-and-water absorption test to decide.1,3,4
Quartzite versus quartz, granite, and marble
| Material (per sq. ft.) | HomeGuide (installed) | Fixr (installed) | Marble.com (scope unstated) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quartzite | $65 – $150 | $80 – $210 | $60 – $120 |
| Quartz | $50 – $200 | $40 – $100 | $50 – $120 |
| Granite | $80 – $150 | — | $35 – $75 |
| Marble | $40 – $150 | — | $40 – $100 |
| Slate | $50 – $100 | — | $50 – $200 |
| Soapstone | — | — | $55 – $100 |
The sources draw different conclusions from their own figures. Angi calls quartz and quartzite similar in price, quoting quartzite at $80 to $220 installed against quartz at $70 to $200.1 Fixr concludes quartzite is generally more expensive, citing its $80 to $210 installed against quartz at $40 to $100, and explaining that quartzite is quarried, cut, and polished while quartz is made in a mold.4 For 30 square feet fully installed, Fixr prices quartzite at $3,600 to $4,950 against granite at $2,500 to $5,000 and marble at $2,000 to $7,000.4 On durability, Fixr rates quartzite at 7 on the Mohs hardness scale against marble’s 4, and notes quartzite resists the etching marble is prone to while still benefiting from sealer on more absorbent slabs.4 For deeper looks at the alternatives, see the quartz countertops cost guide, the granite countertops cost guide, and the marble countertops cost guide.
DIY versus hiring a pro
Angi and HomeAdvisor steer slab installation to professionals: the stone is heavy enough to need a crew, fabrication requires stonecutting skill, and labor’s 25% to 35% share of the project can be exceeded by the cost of a cracked slab.1,2 HomeAdvisor adds that prefab quartzite counters reduce some DIY labor but significantly limit style, finish, and color options.2 The realistic DIY tasks they list are removal and disposal of the old counter, sealing the new one, and installing the backsplash or appliances.1,2
