Standard eased edges are included. Ogee, bullnose, and waterfall edges add $10–$30 per linear foot for fabrication.

Quartz is the most popular choice — it's durable, non-porous (no sealing needed), stain-resistant, and available in hundreds of colors. Granite is a classic natural option but needs annual sealing. Butcher block adds warmth but requires regular oiling. Choose based on your maintenance tolerance and budget.
After selecting your material, expect 1–3 weeks for fabrication (template, cut, polish). Installation takes 2–4 hours for most kitchens. You'll be without countertops for the installation day. Laminate and butcher block have shorter lead times (a few days) compared to stone (2–3 weeks).
