    Oven fitting headache; alter worktop

    We moved into a house with a broken oven. All the ones to replace it are 90cm wide and the existing oven and gap are 89.5cm. There is a single cupboard to the right of the oven with worktop above (probably about 50cm long) so I think the best solution is to take out this bit of worktop, trim off c.1cm and then reseal it back in. Does this sound possible and how much might it cost? To a layman, it sounds like with the right tools it could be quite a quick job.
