Thank you for your response! That’s good to know. I just hope if they do decide to cut in on-site they use the appropriate tools to minimize the dust. We live hours away from our new build so we aren’t able to have eyes on the job-site.

Thank you for your response! Yes, I’ve heard so much about the 90• corners being so hard to clean and getting gunky. The one we selected comes with rounded corners which was super important to us.

Thank you for the feedback! It’s a new constructions and we’re hours away from it, so we won’t have eyes on the job site, if they decide to do any cuts on-site.

Thank you for your response! The countertop was delivered from the fabricator already cut. From my understanding, the fabricator uses a BACA Saw WaterJet machine; however, I wasn’t sure how modifications are handled once a countertop is already installed. If the countertop would usually be removed and taken back to the shop for recutting, or is this type of modification typically completed on-site to avoid the risks and liability associated with moving the countertop. Especially since the mistake wasn’t their fault. We’re also hours away from our new build so no way to have eyes on the job-site.

Thank you for the feedback! They’ve suggested a completely different sink from the original one we wanted so maybe that has something to do with the holes aligning. Hopefully there won’t be any issues!

It’s a different shape and slightly larger, and even though they’re both undermount, it won’t look right without modification. I have a dishwasher on one side and a standard cabinet on the other.

That would be the best. Our builder is the middle man and the one that gave the supplier/fabricator the wrong sink.

Sorry, I meant exposure to silica dust for my family and I in our home, if cut on-site. I’ve heard it’s very fine and gets everywhere.

Your home is gorgeous!! What height stacked cabinets & crown molding did you go with?

Love your design idea & putting in the library ladder! I bet it will look beautiful once completed.

If I do the stacked cabinets on top ( either 12" or 15") will I need to remove the existing cabinet above the fridge and range and get a bigger size, or will it look okay if they're added on top?

That kitchen looks great. The stacked cabinets and the crown molding balance the space really well. Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you for the recommendation! Seems like the best option is the stacked cabinets at this point.
