How much do black granite countertops cost per square foot?
Natural stone, granite and quartzite, costs $47 to about $148 per sq ft installed, with template, fabrication and installation in that rate.
| Item | Price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Granite, 3cm | $47 to about $148 per sq ft installed | Template, fabrication and installation |
| Sink cutout | +$113 | Added to the job total |
| Full-height slab backsplash | +$225 | Added to the job total |
The math takes three moves. Measure the square feet, multiply by the rate for your slab, then add the cutout and backsplash. Cabinets are priced separately, so ask for both on one quote.
Removal of the old countertop is included; a waterfall edge or a second sink cutout is quoted per project.
Full price rules sit on our pricing page.
Black granite vs quartz, marble and quartzite
Black granite costs $47 to about $148 per sq ft installed, the same natural stone range as quartzite.
| Material | Installed per sq ft |
|---|---|
| Black granite | $47 to about $148 |
| Quartz countertops | $49 to $72 (our quartz range) |
| Marble | quoted from the slab |
| Quartzite | $47 to about $148 |
Compare them in pairs, in either order: granite marble or marble granite, granite quartz, marble quartz and quartz quartzite. See marble countertops and quartzite pages for the other stone countertops we offer.
Which is better quality, quartz or granite?
Quality depends on the slab and the fabrication, not on the material name alone. Our installed ranges are $47 to about $148 per sq ft for granite and $49 to $72 for quartz, and our comparison guide covers the full comparison.
Which cabinets pair with black granite countertops?
White oak was the most common finish in our kitchens over the last year, about 7 of 10, and it sits well against a black granite top.
| Cabinet | Why it works | See |
|---|---|---|
| White oak slim shaker | Warm wood against a dark top gives strong contrast | White oak, slim shaker |
| White shaker | Light doors let the black granite stand out | White cabinets, shaker |
| Black cabinets | Tone on tone, and our catalog lists 23 black door-and-color variants | Black cabinets |
Any of our five cabinet lines, from RTA to custom, can be quoted together with kitchen countertops in black granite. About 83% of our kitchens include an island, so tell us early if you want granite on it. A full-height slab backsplash adds $225, and tile is the other route. Browse backsplash and hardware options before you pick a style.
What are the downsides of black granite countertops?

| Finish | Our granite catalog lists polished, honed and leathered finishes. |
| Edges and chips | Eased and quarter-round edges are standard and included; bevel, bullnose and ogee are available and quoted per project. |
