Countertops for Fontana
Our team provides one plan and one slab order for the main kitchen and the suite, delivering finishes that suit each space for homes and dependable fabrication for both residential and commercial projects. We template both kitchens on the same visit, and the same crew that measures returns to set every top.
From choosing whether the suite kitchenette matches the main kitchen to the cutout for a small prep sink, our team handles every detail. Serving Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario and Chino, we ensure fast, efficient service and deliver reliable, professional and beautiful results on every countertop project.
How we work
One Crew From Template to Install

Two kitchens, one house
A Fontana home with a multigenerational suite needs two countertop jobs planned as one, because the main kitchen and the suite kitchenette share a slab order, a template visit and an install day. Lennar describes its Next Gen plans as an attached private suite with its own entrance, kitchenette, living room, bedroom and bathroom, and plans of that kind are part of what is being built in north Fontana. The suite kitchenette is small, but it is still a stone top with a sink cutout, and it raises a question a single-kitchen house never faces.
Match or contrast
Matching the two kitchens means cutting both from the same slab lot, which keeps the colour and veining consistent and can use the offcuts from the main kitchen for the smaller run. Contrasting them lets the suite read as its own home, with a different stone or a simpler edge. Neither is wrong. What matters is deciding before the slab is ordered, because matching after the fact means finding a second slab from the same lot, and that is not always possible.
- Same material, same slab lot: the most consistent look, and the kitchenette may come out of the main kitchen's leftovers.
- Same material, different colour: a clear line between the two households at similar cost per square foot.
- Different material: a harder-wearing quartz in the busy main kitchen and something else in the suite, chosen for the person who will live there.
North Fontana new builds
Most north Fontana countertop calls are upgrades on a new or nearly new home, where the owner wants something better than the builder's standard option. The northern part of the city is where Fontana's large new residential developments were built, and the Arboretum Specific Plan alone allows up to 3,526 residential units on 531.3 acres, amended in June 2021, near the established neighborhoods of eastern Rancho Cucamonga and western Rialto.
On a new home the cabinets are square and sound, so the work is swapping the tops and, where the owner wants it, extending stone up the wall. If you are still in escrow or waiting on a closing date, the practical choice is between paying the builder's upgrade price now or closing on the standard top and replacing it after. We can template as soon as you have the keys. A builder or a builder's purchasing team looking for per-plan pricing on a phase should use the builder packages path instead of this page.
South Fontana replacements
In south Fontana the typical job is a straight replacement of a worn laminate or tile top in an older home. Fontana was incorporated in 1952, and the city's older neighborhoods grew up around the Kaiser Steel mill built during the Second World War, one of only two steel mills west of the Mississippi at the time, and along Foothill Boulevard, the old Route 66. Houses from those decades were not built with stone in mind.
That changes what the template visit looks for. We check that the base cabinets are level and strong enough to carry granite or quartz, find out how the old top was fastened, and look at the wall behind it. A tile top set on a mortar bed takes more time and more hands to lift than a laminate top, and the wall behind it often needs patching before a new splash goes on. Because the quote depends on which side of the city the house sits, we price after we see it, not from a floor area over the phone.
Countertop costs in Fontana
Countertop costs in Fontana depend on how many kitchens are in the house, the square footage and slab count, and the material. For a single kitchen, a replacement is typically estimated at roughly $2,500 to $6,000, with quartz usually estimated at about $60 to $150 per square foot installed and granite generally estimated at around $40 to $100 per square foot installed. A second kitchenette adds its own square footage, a sink cutout and its own install time, although it can often be cut from the same slabs as the main kitchen.
What moves a Fontana quote
- One kitchen or two, and whether they come from the same slab lot.
- Material group, thickness and edge profile.
- Seam count, set by slab size and the shape of each run.
- Cutouts for the sinks, the cooktop and any outlets in a stone splash.
- Tear-off of the old top, which is heavier work on an older south Fontana tile kitchen than on a new builder top.
- Overhang support at an island or a breakfast bar.
These figures are estimates for Fontana and may change with slab availability and what we find on site. The final price comes from your written quote, which follows the template visit.
Break rooms and warehouse offices
Fontana's commercial countertop work follows its economy, which is driven largely by trucking and logistics, and by healthcare at the Kaiser Permanente Fontana medical center. Distribution buildings along the I-10 and I-15 corridors carry offices, break rooms and restrooms, and each one needs a durable top that can take daily use by a shift crew.
A general contractor fitting out a new office or break room should send the plans and finish schedule for a bid, priced by room. A property manager replacing worn tops across several break rooms can have them measured in one visit and installed around shift changes. Medical suite work is handled the same way, through the tenant improvement path, with the counter heights and knee clearances set by the drawings.

Questions
Fontana Countertop Questions
How much does it cost to do countertops for two kitchens in one Fontana home?
The main kitchen is typically estimated at roughly $2,500 to $6,000, and the suite kitchenette adds its own smaller run and sink cutout on top of that. Cutting both from one slab lot can keep the added cost down. Your written quote sets the final price.
Should the kitchenette match the main kitchen?
It is your choice. Matching means ordering both from the same slab lot before fabrication; contrasting lets the suite feel like its own space. Decide before the slabs are ordered, because matching later is not always possible.
Can you replace the builder tops soon after I close on a new north Fontana home?
Yes. Once you have the keys we can template on the new cabinets, and because the boxes are square and sound the job is a top swap rather than a remodel.
Do I have to replace my cabinets in an older south Fontana house?
Not usually. We check at the template visit that the base cabinets are level and strong enough for stone, and levelling or reinforcing is quoted separately if they need it.
What happens at the template visit?
We measure every run in both kitchens if there are two, mark the sink, cooktop and appliance positions, check the cabinets and walls, and agree seam locations and edge profile with you.
Which stone works best in a suite kitchenette?
Quartz is a common pick for a kitchenette that sees daily use, because it is an engineered surface that resists staining from food and does not need sealing. Granite suits an owner who wants the suite to match a granite main kitchen, and it needs periodic sealing like any natural stone.
How long from template to install?
It depends on the material and whether the slab is in stock. We give you an install date at the template visit once the slab is chosen, rather than a guess before we have seen the kitchen.
Do you install break room and office tops in Fontana warehouses?
Yes. A general contractor or property manager can send drawings and a finish schedule for a bid, and installs can be planned around shift changes.
Is the work covered by a warranty?
Yes. Each installation carries a written warranty, and its terms are written into your quote before you commit.
