Stone Cutting Forestville | Cooktop & Tap Cutouts

Shortening a projecting benchtop end

Show the complete end of the bench and the furniture or doorway you are trying to clear. Measure from a fixed reference such as the cabinet end and state the finished dimension. Include the edge profile, stone thickness and any return. A cut that looks straight from above may meet a built-up edge or a support underneath.

Details that make the quote useful

A whole-section straight cut and removal starts from $990 + GST. Reducing the depth along the length of a bench and polishing the resulting edge starts from $1,490 + GST. Explain which result you need so the correct scope is quoted. Keep disposal, access and the visible finish clear in the written quote. If the end includes a waterfall, show both faces and the join.

Prepare your Forestville enquiry

Email info@stonecutting.com.au or use the quote form with your suburb, postcode and photos of the whole bench. Include the stone product and thickness if known, the new fitting model and any existing damage. You can enquire before you have every measurement; final dimensions and suitability are agreed before work. Tell us about stairs, parking and the route to the kitchen so access can be planned.

Price, scope and the finished result

Standard cooktop or sink cutting starts from $690 + GST per cut. Tap-hole drilling is $350 + GST for the first hole and $100 + GST for each additional hole at the same visit. These cover different scopes from lengthwise edge reductions or whole-section removal. Your written quote confirms the actual cut, material, finishing and access. Plumbing, gas and electrical work are separate unless explicitly included.
