- A quartz countertop tariff could double your kitchen renovation cost — and kill 13 jobs for every one it creates
A proposed tariff on imported quartz surfaces could increase kitchen renovation costs by over 100% and result in 13 job losses for every one job gained in the construction and fabrication sectors. The US International Trade Commission ruled that imports harm domestic manufacturers, but the tariff's ripple effects would raise costs for homeowners and reduce demand across the supply chain.
