Seattle homeowners have plenty of countertop showrooms to choose from — and most of them mark up stone that was fabricated somewhere else. Washington Granite is the somewhere else. We fabricate granite, quartz, quartzite, and marble countertops at our own facility just north of Seattle in Everett, and install throughout the city: Ballard, Green Lake, Queen Anne, Capitol Hill, West Seattle, Wallingford, and everywhere between. Skip the middleman, keep the difference.

Granite and Quartz Countertops, Factory-Direct for Seattle

Because you buy directly from the fabricator, a Seattle project with us typically prices 15–30% below retail showrooms for the same stone. You choose your material at full-slab scale — not from a chip sample — and the crew that cuts your stone is the crew that installs it.

Built for Seattle Kitchens

Craftsman bungalows in Wallingford, mid-century remodels in View Ridge, new townhomes in Ballard — Seattle's housing mix demands flexible fabrication. We handle undermount and farmhouse sink cutouts, waterfall edges, full-height backsplashes, and jumbo-slab islands. For design ideas, browse our inspiration gallery or our guide to countertops that increase resale value in Seattle.

Where Seattle Sees the Slabs

Our full-slab showroom is 25–30 minutes north on I-5 at 13228 4th Ave W, Unit A, Everett — with parking, and open Monday–Saturday 9am–5pm. If you've been asking where to see full quartz or granite slabs near Seattle instead of tiny samples, this is the trip that settles it.

Serving All of Greater Seattle

Seattle proper plus Shoreline, Edmonds, Lake Forest Park, and the Eastside — see our dedicated pages for Bellevue, Sammamish, and Everett, Lynnwood, and Marysville. Wherever you are in King or Snohomish County, the first step is the same: a free estimate.

Granite or Quartz — Which Fits Your Seattle Home?

Choose quartz if you want zero maintenance: no sealing, no etching, consistent patterning across the slab — the practical pick for busy households and rentals. Choose granite if you want a one-of-a-kind natural slab at the lowest natural-stone price point; a yearly 15-minute sealing is the only upkeep. Choose quartzite when you want natural veining with more hardness than granite — the showpiece pick for islands. For a deeper dive, see our dedicated granite in Seattle and quartz in Seattle guides.

How Seattle Projects Usually Run

Most Seattle kitchens follow the same 3-week arc: a free estimate from your dimensions (day 1), a slab-tagging visit to the Everett yard (week 1 — 25 minutes up I-5, no appointment needed), laser templating at your home (week 2), and a one-day install (week 2-3), tear-out included. Older Seattle homes — Craftsman-era Wallingford, Ballard boxes, West Seattle ramblers — often have settled, out-of-level cabinets; laser templating maps the real surface so the stone lands flat.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do granite countertops cost in Seattle?

Installed granite in Seattle typically runs $45–$110 per square foot; quartz runs $55–$115. Seattle-side retail showrooms trend 10–18% above the national average — buying factory-direct from our Everett facility is how local homeowners beat that premium.

Do you install in Seattle or only in Snohomish County?

We install throughout Seattle and King County every week — Ballard to West Seattle, plus the Eastside. Distance doesn't change your price for the metro area.

How long does a Seattle countertop project take?

From laser template to installed countertops: 7–10 business days. Most kitchen installations are completed in a single day.

Can I see full slabs before buying?

Yes — that's the point. Our Everett showroom displays full slabs of every material we sell, about 25–30 minutes north of downtown Seattle on I-5.

Do you remove and dispose of old countertops?

Yes — tear-out and haul-away are included in Seattle quotes, and most kitchens complete tear-out and install in the same day.

Do you serve all Seattle neighborhoods?

Yes — Ballard, Queen Anne, West Seattle, Capitol Hill, and every neighborhood in between; condo and townhome logistics included.

Quartzite Countertops in Seattle

Quartzite is the surface Seattle buyers ask for when they want the look of marble without its behaviour. It is natural stone, harder than granite (Mohs 7 against roughly 6), and unlike marble it does not etch when lemon juice or wine sits on it. Installed it runs $80–$150 per square foot — above granite and quartz, and worth it mainly for a feature island or a surface you want to be the room's focal point.

Quartzite slabs Seattle homeowners choose

For the marble look: Taj Mahal and White Macaubas are the two most requested — warm cream and soft grey veining respectively. Sea Pearl gives a cooler blue-grey that suits the light in north-facing Seattle kitchens.

For something with real movement: Fusion and Blue Lava carry dramatic banding that works as a single-slab feature. Calacatta Montreal sits between the two — patterned but restrained.

Quartzite is frequently mis-sold: a good deal of material labelled "soft quartzite" is actually dolomitic marble and will etch. We test what we buy, and you can see the difference at the yard rather than taking anyone's word for it.

Seeing quartzite slabs near Seattle

Quartzite is the material that photographs worst — the depth and translucency simply do not survive a screen. Every slab is on the racks at our Everett slab yard, about 25 minutes north of downtown, where you can tag the exact slab that gets cut. Browse the full range under quartzite countertops, or ask about remnants if you only need a vanity or bar top.
