The joint is part of the structure
A cut near a mitred join may expose adhesive, reinforcement or an unsupported edge. Send photos of the entire waterfall from both sides, the top junction and the floor connection. A close-up alone is not enough to assess the alteration.
Be clear about alignment
If a waterfall is out of line, unstable or badly fitted, trimming its edge may not fix the underlying problem. We do not promise that cutting will correct an unsafe panel. Replacing or refitting the affected section may be necessary.
Coordinate adjacent work
New flooring, cabinetry and changed island dimensions can all affect the final height and edge position. Agree the sequence with the other trades. The quote should distinguish stone modification from removal, refitting and any structural or cabinet work.
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.
Can a waterfall panel simply be trimmed shorter?
The mitred joint and support form part of the installation. A change can affect both the vertical panel and horizontal top, so replacement or rebuilding may be more appropriate than an in-place trim.
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.
