LOL.
If I don’t laugh….
So the countertop and backsplash… We were happy with that.
Until.
We noticed that the overhang of the countertop will interfere with the lower doors and drawers.
When they installed it all, they didn’t shim the cabinet tops to allow for the necessary clearance.
The drawers barely slip under. But the drawer fronts are not yet installed.
The cabinet door in the corner won’t clear at all.
So.
The backsplash has to come off because it’s installed on top of the countertop.
Then the countertop has to come off.
Shims need to be added to the cabinets and the countertop reinstalled.
Then the backsplash needs to go ba….oh wait. Now the backsplash is too tall. The top needs to be trimmed in order to fit under the cabinets.
Wait again. Now the outlets and switches don’t line up. So, they need to be moved up to match the holes in the backsplash.
I sure hope the backsplash or countertop material doesn’t break in all of this.
Yeah. In reality, we’re looking at just gutting the room and getting new cabinets and everything else.
Hey, at least it’s only been 2 months for a 10 day job.
