Send the whole kitchen first
Stand back far enough to show the benchtop run, sink, cooktop, cupboards and any joins. Add your suburb and describe the intended change. A close-up helps with detail, but it cannot show the access route or how much stone remains around an opening.
Then show the cut position and underside
Add a dry, well-lit close-up of the proposed opening or edge. Where safely accessible, include the space underneath so supports, cabinet dividers and fitting hardware can be considered. Do not dismantle, disconnect or lift appliances to take photos. Use the documents and accessible measurements you have, and tell us what is still unknown.
Include the fitting drawing
For a cooktop, sink, tap or power module, include the exact model and its installation template. Mark the intended position on a copy of the overall photo. Keep all openings in the same enquiry if they are to be completed together. The written quote confirms suitability, scope, finishing and the agreed price before a work appointment is booked.

Are these photographs completed StoneCutting jobs?
No. The images on this guide are illustrative kitchen scenes used to explain fitting and quote preparation. They do not document customer projects or guarantee an identical result.
