Coordinating stone work with an apartment renovation
For an apartment enquiry, include the unit access route, lift dimensions if relevant and the building’s work-hour arrangements. Agree who will provide access and whether common-area protection or a loading booking is required. These practical details help coordinate the accepted stone scope with appliance and cabinet trades. A date is confirmed only after availability and access are agreed.
Details that make the quote useful
If the kitchen is being refreshed in stages, list what is staying and what is being replaced. Moving a cabinet support, changing an oven or replacing a sink can alter the stone plan. Photograph the current installation before anything is dismantled, then identify the proposed openings. Keeping the drawings together avoids an appliance installer working from one model while the stone quote refers to another.
Prepare your Lane Cove 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.

Questions, answered.
Can I request a Lane Cove quote before buying the fitting?
Yes. Send the proposed model or installation drawing and photos of the existing bench. Establish whether the opening and surrounding installation can suit it before committing to an appliance or sink.
Will the stone cutting include fitting and connecting my appliance?
The quote identifies the stone cutting and finishing. Arrange appliance, gas, electrical and plumbing work with the appropriate trades and coordinate them around the agreed stone appointment.
