At Crown Granite, we’ve been helping Montreal homeowners and contractors with custom countertop fabrication and installation for over 20 years. One of the most common questions we hear is: “How much will my new kitchen countertops actually cost?”
Pricing in 2026 depends on the material you choose, the size and layout of your kitchen, edge profiles, thickness, and any special features like waterfall islands or integrated sinks. As your local fabricators with showrooms in Dorval and Mont-Royal (TMR), we provide transparent quotes that include everything — material, precise fabrication, professional templating, and expert installation across the West Island, Montreal, and surrounding Quebec areas.
Here’s a clear, honest breakdown of what you can expect to pay per square foot in Montreal this year, including fabrication and installation.
Quartz Countertops
Quartz remains one of the most popular choices for busy Quebec kitchens thanks to its consistent color, non-porous surface, and low maintenance.
- 2026 Price Range (installed): $70 – $150 per square foot
- Budget-Friendly Options: $70 – $95 (solid colors or simple patterns)
- Mid-Range (most popular marble or quartzite looks): $95 – $125
- Premium Designs: $125 – $150+ (unique veining, matte finishes, or designer brands)
For a typical 40–50 sq ft kitchen (including island), expect a total project cost between $3,500 and $7,000+. Quartz is easy to fabricate, which helps keep costs predictable.
Granite Countertops
As a company named Crown Granite, we love working with natural granite. It offers excellent heat resistance and timeless beauty that pairs beautifully with warm neutral trends in 2026.
- 2026 Price Range (installed): $65 – $160 per square foot
- Entry-Level Granite: $65 – $90 (common colors like beige, gray, or black)
- Mid-Range: $90 – $130
- Premium/Exotic Granite: $130 – $160+ (rare patterns or imported slabs)
Granite is a strong value option for Montreal homes, especially if you want a durable surface that handles hot pans well. A standard kitchen project often falls in the $3,000 – $6,500 range.
Marble Countertops
Marble delivers classic luxury with soft, elegant veining — perfect for those wanting a high-end look in 2026.
- 2026 Price Range (installed): $90 – $250+ per square foot
- Standard Marble: $90 – $150
- Premium Calacatta or Statuario Styles: $160 – $250+
Marble requires more care (sealing and avoiding acidic spills), but the dramatic beauty makes it a favorite for statement kitchens. Projects typically start around $4,500 for smaller spaces and go higher for larger or more intricate layouts.
Quartzite Countertops
Natural quartzite has surged in popularity this year. It’s harder than granite, features stunning organic veining, and offers better heat and scratch resistance than many expect.
- 2026 Price Range (installed): $80 – $180 per square foot
- Common Light Quartzites (like Taj Mahal styles): $80 – $120
- Bold or Exotic Quartzite: $130 – $180+
Quartzite gives you that natural stone character with impressive durability. Many Montreal clients choose it for its unique movement that engineered materials can’t fully replicate. Expect totals from $4,000 upward depending on slab selection.
Porcelain (Sintered Stone/Dekton) Countertops
Porcelain slabs are gaining traction for their extreme heat resistance, large-format seamless looks, and suitability for both indoor and outdoor use.
- 2026 Price Range (installed): $75 – $160 per square foot
- Standard Porcelain: $75 – $110
- Large-Format or Premium Designs: $120 – $160+
Porcelain works especially well for thin profiles or full-height backsplashes. Fabrication can be more specialized, but the result is a clean, modern surface with minimal maintenance.
What Affects the Final Price in Montreal?
Several factors can move your project up or down within these ranges:
- Kitchen Size & Layout — A simple kitchen costs less per square foot than one with a large island or complex angles.
- Edge Profiles — Basic eased is standard; bullnose, mitered, waterfall, or custom profiles add $5–$15+ per sq ft.
- Thickness — 3cm material is more common and durable than 2cm but costs more.
- Special Features — Waterfall islands, sinks, boo matching, or custom cutouts increase the total.
- Slab Selection — Viewing actual slabs at our showroom often reveals better value options.
- Removal & Disposal — We handle old countertop removal for an additional fee.
- Delivery by stairs / elevator — Depending on the situation, some additional fees can be added which are confirmed upon final measurements.
In Montreal and the West Island, professional installation (including templating and precise fitting) typically adds $20–$40 per square foot depending on complexity.
Real Example for a Montreal Kitchen
For an average 45 sq ft kitchen renovation in TMR or Dorval:
- Lower-range quartz: $2,500 – $4,000 total
- Mid-range quartz: $4,500 – $6,000 total
- Good-quality granite: $4,000 – $6,500 total
- Natural quartzite: $5,000 – $8,000 total
These are full installed prices — no hidden surprises when you work with Crown Granite.
