Marble Countertop Size, Weight and Color

Marble is available in a variety of colorful, rich tones to match any room's color scheme. Colors range from classic white to deep reds, pale roses and blacks. Most marble weighs between 10 and 11 pounds per square foot, assuming a 2-inch depth. A simple 4 x 2-foot piece for the bathroom can weigh around 80 pounds, and a 10 x 3-foot piece for the kitchen can weigh around 300 pounds.

Installation Cost Factors

Most of the cost to install a marble countertop comes from the purchase of the countertop itself. It's typically measured and sold in square feet. Homeowners may also have to pay for the removal and disposal of an existing countertop. If the cabinet base needs repair or reinforcements so that it can support the weight of marble, then expect higher costs.

Professional Installation

Working with a professional contractor ensures a seamless installation that lasts years. Professionals have the tools and craftsmanship skills to size the countertop accurately, make cut outs for the sink, join sections together with precision and seal the finished work.
