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.
Yes, I'm finally getting around to finishing the job. We had some terrible water problems this spring that made me drop it for several months. I'd say the water table swamping your basement slab is a bad thing

If the back splash is made with butt joints, and the angles are irregular then they'd have to be filled. I'd like to avoid this if possible.
