Wednesday evening, we explore the kitchen and marvel at how good it looks. The granite guys have to come back to do the backsplash in a couple days. That was another piece of inspiration. Marcos suggested doing the window ledge from the same slab, which led to the backsplash going from counter to windowsill for a really unified look. That will be installed Friday. Meanwhile, we discover a slight problem where the drawers next to the sink are hitting the sink because there is a little give in the drawer and no margin of room the way the sink is set. It's all tightly fit and to move anything means moving everything. I send a note to Ray and Marcos suggesting they come by and take a look next day. Both are responsive and arrive Thursday morning ready to do whatever it takes fix it.
Short of tearing out the sink and counter and repositioning, it looks like the only recourse is to adjust the drawer fronts or hardware. Through great cooperation and experience, a solution is found, mainly by lightly grinding the edge of the sink and adjusting the drawers. The sink also has to be anchored to the cabinet underneath the apron front, and once that is done, it should not impede.
Mattias sets up the washer and dryer and does a great job finishing the facade around the sink. The drawers now clear the sink and the day ends in relief and great happiness, as I start on the mountain of laundry I've saved up.
