For construction professionals planning a project, understanding the cost of marble countertops is crucial. Prices can range from $80 to $260+ per square foot installed, depending on the marble grade and origin. Entry-level Carrara costs $80–$120, while premium exotic slabs like Breccia Capraia can reach $260+ per square foot. These figures include installation, ensuring you have a comprehensive view of potential expenses.
