What is the Countertop Calculator?

Countertop materials are priced per square metre and cut to size — getting the measurement wrong means either a costly gap or an expensive re-cut. This calculator computes the surface area of your countertops, optional backsplash, and subtracts cutouts for sinks and cooktops so you get an accurate quote-ready area in square metres.

You may also find the Backsplash Tile Calculator, Grout Calculator, and Drywall Calculator useful.

Who Uses This Calculator?

This tool is used by kitchen renovators, stone fabricators quoting benchtops, and joinery companies estimating material costs.

How to Use the Countertop Calculator

<öl>
  • Enter your Counter length.
  • Enter your Counter depth.
  • Enter your Backsplash height.
  • Enter your Cutouts area.
  • Click Calculate to see your results instantly.
  • Formula

    The calculator uses the following formula:

    Surface area = Counter length × depth; Backsplash = length × backsplash_height; Cost = area × price/m²

    Worked Example

    A kitchen with 4.5 m of counter at 60 cm depth, a 0.6 m backsplash height, and one 0.4 × 0.8 m sink cutout has a total surface area of 3.38 m² of countertop plus 2.7 m² of backsplash.

    Step-by-Step Calculation

    <öl>
  • Counter surface: 3.5 m × 0.6 m = 2.1 m²
  • Backsplash area: 3.5 m × 0.45 m = 1.575 m²
  • Subtract cutout allowance: 1 sink cutout ≈ 0.2 m²
  • Total slab needed: 2.1 + 1.575 - 0.2 = 3.475 m²
  • Common Mistakes to Avoid

    • Forgetting to account for overhangs (typically 3-4 cm on seating sides)
    • Not measuring the backsplash area separately from the counter
    • Assuming one slab covers everything — large kitchens often need seams
    Pro Tip: Engineered stone (quartz) and granite are priced differently — get quotes in 'slab' pricing versus 'per m²'. For island benches, check whether the price includes waterfall edges, which add significant area.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the standard depth for kitchen countertops?

    600 mm (60 cm) is the standard depth for kitchen base cabinets and countertops in most countries. Bathroom vanities are typically 450–500 mm deep.

    How is a countertop cutout calculated?

    Measure the external dimensions of the sink or cooktop and subtract that rectangle from the total counter area. This calculator does that automatically when you enter cutout dimensions.

    What thickness of stone countertop should I use?

    20 mm (2 cm) is standard for laminate and quartz. 30 mm (3 cm) gives a more premium look and is common for granite. Thicker slabs are heavier and require stronger cabinet support.

    Do I need a template made before ordering stone?

    Yes — for stone countertops, fabricators almost always create a physical or digital template on-site after cabinets are installed. Never order cut stone from measurements taken before cabinets are in place.

    How much overhang should a breakfast bar have?

    A standard breakfast bar overhang is 250–300 mm for seating. This requires support underneath (corbels or brackets) if the overhang exceeds 150–200 mm for stone slabs.
