nobody miters backsplash for granite, formica laminate,corian or any other, so forget mitering inside corners, they should just be simple butt joints.

Usually a template is made for a stone top
it will follow the crooked out of square walls which happens in older homes and sometimes in poorly constructed new homes even.

I assume it must be too small of a job for a fabricator to want to bother coming there to make a template???
So why can't you just make one for him, it's easy to do.

I'm not sure what you mean by option 2 there where you say build up the wall to fit, you mean fair the wall with plaster??? sounds like a lot of extra work to me.

good luck

is this the same bathroom you asked about contractors a long time ago? I guess you're doing it piecemeal.
