Slab size. When you choose your stone, youâll want to know how many slabs you need and what thickness of stone to buy. An average granite slab size is about 9 to 10 feet wide and 5 to 6 feet tall (slabs are displayed vertically). A typical slab may be 50 square feet but with waste and granite remnants, it may yield only 35 square feet of stone counters. Most kitchens need multiple granite slabs â Countertops can be seamed. The size of the slabs can affect how many seams end up in your kitchen counters and where they must be placed.
