How Much Do Countertops Cost in Washington State?
If you’re planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel in 2025, understanding countertop pricing is one of the first steps. In Washington State, countertop costs can vary widely depending on the material, size of the project, and the level of customization involved. This guide provides a transparent look at what homeowners and contractors can expect to pay, with real pricing insights from our fabrication and installation team at Tops Countertops.
Countertop Prices by Material (Per Square Foot)
Quartz Countertops:
$65–$100/sq ft installed
Quartz continues to be the most popular choice for Washington homeowners due to its durability, low maintenance, and consistent color patterns. Higher-end designer colors or jumbo slabs (for large islands) can raise prices. Edge upgrades, waterfall panels, and complex cutouts (like farmhouse sinks) will also affect the final number.
Granite Countertops:
$55–$95/sq ft installed
Granite offers natural variation and a timeless look, making it a top pick for those who want something unique. Some local suppliers offer affordable “Group A” granites starting in the mid-$50s, while exotic patterns with veining or movement can quickly rise above $90 per foot.
Ultra-Compact Surfaces (Dekton, Neolith):
$90–$135/sq ft installed
These are premium materials known for high heat resistance and zero porosity. However, they require specialized tools and experience to fabricate, which contributes to their higher price tag. Best for outdoor kitchens or high-use commercial environments.
Solid Surface (e.g., Corian):
$45–$75/sq ft installed
Often overlooked, solid surface is a strong choice for laundry rooms, healthcare applications, and budget-conscious remodels. Seamless finishes and easy repairability make it functional, but it can scratch more easily than stone.
Cost by Project Type
Kitchen Countertops (Full Kitchen):
Average Total: $3,500–$7,000
Typical Washington kitchens require 50–70 square feet of material. A basic quartz install with a standard sink cutout and eased edge profile falls on the lower end. Add a waterfall panel or custom edges like ogee, and the cost rises accordingly.
Bathroom Vanity Tops:
$400–$1,200 per vanity
These are smaller projects, usually 8–15 square feet. Remnant pieces or “orphan slabs” can often be used for vanities, which saves money and allows for more premium materials at a lower cost.
Laundry Room Countertops:
$800–$1,800 installed
Often done in solid surface, laminate, or low-cost quartz. These installs are usually straightforward but can be bundled with other rooms for better pricing.

Outdoor Kitchens:
$2,000–$5,000+ depending on layout and material
You’ll need a weather-resistant surface like granite or ultra-compact porcelain. Edges are typically eased, but special adhesives and UV-stable sealers are required, which adds to cost.
What Impacts the Final Price?
- Material selection: More exotic = more expensive.
- Edge profile: Eased is standard; Ogee or Double Radius can add $10–$25/linear foot.
- Cutouts: Undermount sinks, drop-ins, cooktops, and outlets are labor-intensive.
- Backsplash: 4″ standard backsplash is common, but full-height splash increases price.
- Jobsite accessibility: Second-floor condos, limited access, or rural installs may carry added delivery or labor fees.
2025 Countertop Pricing Trends in Washington
We’re seeing steady price increases for quartz and granite driven by shipping costs and global supply constraints. Builders and remodelers are locking in pricing early or batching projects to control costs. Meanwhile, solid surface remains a steady value play, especially for flips or utility rooms.
