Thinking of getting new countertops

[huberm]

I have new laminate countertops, but I think they look tacky and am interested in something nicer, like quartz or marble with a tile backsplash.

Any suggestions? Also, how much is an average price for these kinds of countertops? I measured and I have 375 sq ft of countertop (25" deep x 180" total length)

granite and marble will easily run you in excess of $20/SF...can be VERY expensive.

Yeah, I was gonna say, 375 Sq. Ft. is about the size of a 2 car garage.
