Where to Buy Kitchen Countertops in Ottawa
Estimated Read Time: 4 Minutes
There might not be a more eye-catching kitchen feature than the countertops.
With so many stunning natural stones or beautifully engineered products to choose from, finding the right surface for your kitchen can be an overwhelming task.
We’re here to help make that journey easier!
At Deslaurier Custom Cabinets, we specialize in high-quality custom cabinetry solutions that look great and perform even better. In doing so, we know how important it is for clients to determine the perfect countertop selection for their kitchen.
While we do provide our own laminate countertops, we partner with reputable local countertop suppliers in Ottawa, like Urban Quarry, to ensure our clients have a vast selection of natural stone and engineered surfaces that will integrate perfectly within their dream kitchen.
However, a large countertop fabricator like Urban Quarry, for example, is strictly a business-to-business company—meaning residential homeowners won’t be able to purchase a countertop from them for their kitchen unless they are working with a Builder, Contractor, or one of their partnered dealers.
Not to worry! There are plenty of local countertop suppliers for your needs!
Let’s take a look at 5 of the best places to go for kitchen countertops in the Ottawa region!

Buying Countertops from Big Box Stores
As with many other kitchen products, you can buy countertop surfaces off-the-shelf from large home improvement stores like Home Depot, Lowe’s, or Rona.
These stores commonly carry popular countertop materials such as laminate, quartz, granite, and wood. They sell prefabricated counters that typically come in 4 foot and 8 foot sections—but they will limit your options.
Going this route will restrict your countertop design to whatever is in store and in stock online, meaning your options will dwindle down significantly compared to the hundreds of selections offered by local countertop fabricators.
If you’re not picky about your countertop’s appearance and just want a quick and easy surface installation at an affordable price, this is the way to go. Particularly if you plan on doing a DIY installation of laminate or hardwood countertops yourself, you’ll find everything you need at one of these large home improvement stores.
Conversely, if you want to sift through your options, or customize the perfect surface for your kitchen, any of Ottawa’s local suppliers mentioned above have got you covered!
