Coordinate three parts of the job
Have a licensed gasfitter arrange safe gas disconnection and an electrician confirm the induction supply requirements. Stone cutting is scheduled around those tasks. Do not assume the old gas cooktop’s electrical connection can power the new appliance.
Look beyond the cutout width
Induction units can need ventilation, drawer clearance and separation from an oven below. Give us the full installation manual, not just a sales-page screenshot. A correct opening does not compensate for insufficient space beneath the benchtop.
Plan the kitchen downtime
Arrange appliance removal and reconnection in an agreed sequence. Keep your old appliance’s model information until the new fit is confirmed. An existing cutout that is already too large may require a different appliance or another solution rather than further cutting.
Request a written cutting quote
Send your suburb, photographs, existing and required dimensions, and the appliance or fitting model. We confirm suitability, the scope of finishing, access requirements and the agreed price before booking. Work on legacy engineered stone is considered only within permitted scope and applicable controls.

Questions, answered.
Does the stone-cutting visit include disconnecting the gas?
Gas disconnection and electrical connection are separate licensed-trade tasks unless expressly arranged. Confirm the induction unit’s electrical and ventilation requirements before setting a cutting date.
What does the quote include?
Your written quote sets out the agreed cutting and finishing. Appliance, gas, electrical, plumbing and cabinet work are separate unless explicitly included.
