Find the average kitchen counter tops prices based on this list.

You can find the average kitchen counter tops prices down below based on the material used on your counter top. If you would like to change it, you can also use this guide.


Start from ceramic tile as the material of your counter top. You can have so many options that choosing between the different types of counter tops can seem impossible. But if you stick with simple solid colors, you can find ceramic tile counter tops start around $5 per square foot installed (2010 prices). Although the prices range up to $100 per square foot installed for hand-painted or patterned tile, most kitchen choices fall into the $10 to $30 range. Remember that you will also need to reseal the grout annually, so include that in your total cost.


Second is the laminate material. It will cost you $15 to $60 per linear foot installed. You can use Formica and other laminates, which are among the most economical counter tops. As for the DIY kitchen remodel, you can buy laminates preformed with a back splash and front edge for $12 to $15 per linear foot (2010 prices). You can find the laminates come in lots of different colors and patterns, and prices vary accordingly.

Third is the solid surface counter top, which comes in every imaginable color and texture, including stone and metal look-alike? They cost from $40 to $80 per square foot installed. You can also use compressed quartz, which is a blend of 95 percent ground quartz and five percent polymer resin, runs $100 to $200 per square foot installed (2010 prices).

Fourth is the wood, which starts around $30 per square foot, installed, but prices typically range between $50 and $100 (2010 prices). And according to Bob Vila, “Oak, maple, cherry, red beech, walnut, teak, and mahogany are all hardwoods favored for counter top applications.”

Last is stone. You can expect to pay from $40 to $120 for natural stone counter tops of granite, slate, marble or soapstone (2010 prices). There are black slate, red slate and granite counter tops which tend toward the upper end of the range. Pas for the prices, they vary by location and without nearby quarries, you’ll pay more because of shipping costs. Granite tiles are less expensive than slab granite, but you will have more seams.

This poem analysis would be divided into three parts, namely: introduction which will tell a brief background life of the poet, then to the content where there will be summary and intrinsic elements of this poem, and then move to the conclusion as the finish line.
