Slab Mistake

One thing they did incorrectly was the side slabs of the shower opening. THey were not supposed to get narrower when they met the wainscot. They were supposed to stick out about 3/4 inch, but now they are even and the edge of the slab looks funny meeting the drywall. It's not as clean looking as it could be.

Master Counter Slab Installation

They couldnt do this before because we were missing a cap for the center leg of the leg system. So that took only 5 days to get on site, but then the slab guys couldn't get to the house until today, 6 weeks later.

By this time, I was just daily to the contractor "Where the @#%#%^ are they?!"

Watching them put this together was very interesting.

I've dubbed the painter Michelangelo. Because he is taking meticulous care and taking forever!
