Countertop Installation in Bangsar

Cost is driven by material and area. Laminate is cheapest; granite and quartz sit in the middle; premium natural stone and sintered surfaces are dearest. Priced per square foot/metre or linear metre installed, with templating, cut-outs (sink, hob), edging and removal of the old top usually on top.

In Bangsar, view finished installs, get the price templated-and-fitted with all cut-outs and edging specified, and confirm who fabricates the stone. Compare quotes on the full installed cost per square foot/metre, not the raw slab price.

Dry-cutting engineered (quartz) stone releases silica dust that causes silicosis, a serious lung disease — which is why fabrication must use wet-cutting and proper controls. This is a real, regulated workplace hazard; reputable fabricators take it seriously (see country notes).

Quartz and sintered surfaces just need wiping; avoid excessive heat and harsh abrasives. Natural granite and marble need periodic sealing and are more stain-sensitive (marble especially). Ask the installer for material-specific care instructions and how often to reseal.

After templating, fabrication takes about one to two weeks for stone; installation itself is usually a day. Plan for the gap between template and fit — you'll be without a worktop briefly, so coordinate with the rest of the kitchen work.

Stone countertops commonly run RM100-400 per foot run supplied and fitted; a typical kitchen lands at RM6,000-24,000 depending on material and island. Local granite is cheaper than imported quartz/sintered stone.
