| Quartz | From $45 / sq ft | $2,000–$4,500 | Zero maintenance; large-format slabs reduce waste |

What actually moves the price
Four things decide where your project lands in the ranges above. Slab grade — within a single stone family, rarer colors and more dramatic movement cost more than workhorse patterns. Edge profile — eased and beveled edges are included in most quotes; bullnose, ogee and mitred waterfall edges are upgrades. Layout complexity — islands, long unbroken runs and tight seam requirements use more of each slab. Cutouts — undermount sink and cooktop cutouts are standard in our pricing, which is exactly the line item that quietly inflates "cheap" per-foot quotes elsewhere.
Why our quote is the real number
A Stone Forever quote is produced in your home from a laser template, priced on the exact slab you approved, and delivered as a firm installed figure. Careful sourcing and in-house fabrication are why the starting prices undercut special-order programs — and the lifetime fabrication warranty is why the number doesn't need padding for callbacks. Every measure is free, whether it's a single vanity or a full kitchen.
