        "text": "Total costs vary depending on slab material, square footage, edge profiles, and the complexity of sink cutouts. Beyond the raw stone cost per square foot, labor factors include tear-out and disposal of old counters, cabinet leveling, and trade coordination for plumbing. High-grade quartz or natural marble will sit at a higher price point than standard laminate or butcher block. Choosing an owner-operated contractor like HH Remodeling helps keep overall kitchen remodeling costs reasonable because cabinet prep, drywall touchups, and sub-trade management are handled under one scope.",
