Keeping a granite bench during an appliance upgrade
If you want to retain natural granite, show the grain, existing opening and condition around the proposed cut. Include any visible cracks, joins or older repairs. An appliance replacement may be possible without replacing the whole top, but the remaining stone and support must suit the new layout. A close-up alone does not show the complete installation.
Details that make the quote useful
Send the appliance installation drawing together with the cabinet opening and a wider photo of the kitchen run. If the cut reaches an exposed edge, identify the finish you expect. Matching a factory profile may not be practical in place, so discuss that detail before accepting the quote. Coordinate disconnection, removal and reconnection with the appropriate installer.
Prepare your Roseville 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 Roseville 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.
