Our new counters arrived this morning!
The 2 men arrived at just before 8:30 a.m. and were completed with the job by 10:30 a.m. It looks great and I can’t wait to get things back in order. It’s been since the end of April since we’ve been without a kitchen sink/counters. We still have a few steps to complete before we actually get there but it’s coming along!
The men got right to work on the east wall counter.
This crazy contraption levels and joins the first seam together.
Very interesting to watch.
Looking at the counter area just to the right of the stove area.
Corner area.
The second seam is hidden there along the front inside corner of the cabinet.
Close up of the seam, I mentioned in the photo above.
It’s a bit hard to spot.
The island is one big piece with a 12-inch overhang on this end for counter eating.
This piece weighs about 700 lbs.
Our new sink.
Square, stainless steel, and under-mounted.
Now to join and level the second seam.
Counter just left of the stove area.
This new area is wider than our previous counter space in the same area.
Right side of the window sill.
Our old window sill was wood and was starting to look very old and worn.
Left side of window sill.
Under-mount sink.
The supports are there for 72 hours then we can remove them.
We will hire a plumber to get the new sink, garbage disposal, and our dishwasher connected again to the wall drains.
Looking across the island toward the sink.
We were just “testing” the new faucet to see how it will fit with the window sill.
Another project complete, onto the next step…
