A skilled tradesperson who cuts, polishes, and installs engineered quartz countertops and slabs.
What quartz cutters do
Quartz cutters work from digital templates of customer kitchens, cut slabs of engineered or natural stone to size on CNC bridge saws and waterjets, polish edges to specified profiles, and install finished pieces on job sites.
Training path
The trade is learned through apprenticeship at a stone-fabrication shop, often with one to two years of supervised work before solo operation of CNC equipment. The Marble Institute of America offers fabricator certifications.
Work setting
Most quartz cutters work in fabrication shops that supply kitchen-and-bath remodelers, builders, and direct-to-consumer showrooms. The job blends climate-controlled shop floor work with field installation calls.
