Types of Kitchen Countertops: Quartz, Granite, Quartzite and Marble Compared

Our catalog lists 262 countertop stones across five materials. Granite leads the natural stone side with 65, then quartzite with 49, marble with 14 and dolomite with 8. We template, fabricate and install them within 100 miles of Alpharetta. Kitchen countertops are priced per square foot, separately from cabinets. The installed price already includes templating and installation, and runs $47 to $148 per sq ft depending on the stone and level.

Granite countertops start at $47 per sq ft installed, so the real choice between our five materials is look and upkeep, not the entry price. The surfaces below are the types of kitchen countertops in our catalog.

We do not carry porcelain, so ask and we will say so. Granite countertops, marble, dolomite and quartzite all need periodic sealing, which engineered stone does not. See the full comparison to narrow your selection.

Our quartz comes in two slab sizes: Regular at 127″×64″, about 56 sq ft, and Jumbo at 139″×80″, about 77 sq ft, both 3cm.

Quartz countertops

A small L-shaped kitchen in Windward, Alpharetta: light gray shaker cabinets, a matching island and a white top, with the budget going into the box and the countertop. See the Alpharetta project or open the material page.

Granite countertops

Quartzite

In our Milton project the island is the same white shaker door as the perimeter, so the warmth comes from the brown-veined stone countertop. See the Milton project or open the material page.

Marble and dolomite

Our catalog lists 14 marble and 8 dolomite stones. Open the material page.

Bathroom countertops

Countertop Colors: White Leads, Then Black, Grey and Brown

White makes up 157 of the 262 stones in our catalog, followed by black at 28, grey at 24 and brown at 16.

Blue (11), cream (9) and green (7) round out the colors. Pages by style and color cover quartz in white and black, and granite in white and black.

What is the most popular countertop right now?

We do not publish sales rankings, so we can only describe what our catalog holds for kitchen countertops. Quartz is the largest material with 126 of 262 stones, ahead of granite at 65, and white is the largest color with 157 stones.

Should a countertop be lighter or darker than cabinets?

Both work. In our Johns Creek project a dark island finish sits inside a white perimeter with white tops.
