        "text": "Kitchen countertop replacement costs depend on total square footage, slab material, edge profile details, and plumbing requirements. Basic laminate or butcher block sits on the lower cost spectrum, while engineered quartz, granite, and marble represent mid-to-premium ranges. Additional project factors include undermount sink cutouts, cooktop cutouts, removal and disposal of heavy existing surfaces, and necessary plumbing disconnection and reconnection. Adjusting out-of-level base cabinets or adding matching tile backsplashes will also adjust the final estimate.",
