Wednesday the cabinet guy came to install the “tower” on top of the granite only to discover that the granite installers installed the back splash when they should not have. When I saw the granite last Friday after the installation I saw the back splash and thought the cabinets must be notched out for the backsplash – not the case.
So the backsplash was removed later that day and the tower installed. Yesterday the crown was placed on top of cabinet. The two side drawers need to be made a bit less deep to allow clearance for the sink.
I am most excited to have a hall closet. Previously, this space opened on the opposite wall inside the tub/shower room which made no sense when it could have been planned as a hall closet. This is going to end up being a very expensive hall closet because this is higher quality shelving than I needed. I saw a picture and sent it to contractor and said this is the design I want and they reproduced it. The rod for the hangers needs to be move back bit to allow clearance for the hangers in front. They may also need to remove the molding around the door inside the closet. I knew it was a bit of a tight fit for an hanger but I was not expecting the molding inside the closet. I think that is a bit overkill.
This should be all done next week and then I can start planning towards replacing the floors in the dining room, living room and hallway because of water damage leak in unit upstairs.
