About the counter calculator
How is the area worked out?
Each run is its length times a standard depth of twenty-five and a half inches, plus the island, backsplash and any waterfall ends.
How many slabs will I need?
The tool divides the area plus waste by a typical usable slab area. Real slabs vary, and your fabricator plans seams and cuts on their own layout.
Why does waste matter?
Cutouts, seams, pattern matching and trimming use material, so a share of every slab is not part of the finished top.
