Stone benchtop cutting Palm Beach

Agree the finished end position

Measure from a fixed cabinet face or another clear reference point and show the proposed line on a photograph. Include doors, handles and nearby walkways in the wider view. If cabinetry is also changing, supply its final dimensions; cutting to a temporary panel position can leave the wrong projection once the joinery is complete. The intended result should be agreed before the stone is marked.

Visible edges need a separate finishing discussion

The shortened end may expose a different pattern or internal body from the top surface. Existing mitres, joins or returns can limit the profile achievable in place. Photograph the current edge and underside, and identify the stone product if known. For your Palm Beach appointment, explain parking and equipment access, including any stairs or building entry arrangements. A sound finished edge is the goal, rather than simply removing the unwanted length.

Quote and scheduled Queensland visits

Send your Palm Beach address, clear photos, the material if known and current and proposed dimensions. Queensland jobs are coordinated through scheduled visits; availability is confirmed for your address and accepted scope. Standard cooktop or sink cutting starts at $690 + GST per cut, and tap-hole drilling starts at $350 + GST for the first hole; each additional hole at the same visit is $100 + GST ($110 including GST). Other modifications are quoted for the actual cutting, finishing and access. Appliance, plumbing, electrical and cabinet work should be identified separately.

Suitability before the visit

We assess the existing installation, including cracks, joins, narrow stone rails and support. Work on legacy engineered stone is considered only within permitted scope and applicable requirements. Do not make a trial cut or remove a connected appliance to provide measurements. Send the product documents and accessible photographs first so the next step can be confirmed.
