ATTN Builders: Bathroom remodelling question

[Slipknot]

Ahh flood
yes, flood is bad very bad
I had water too, it sucks, first time in 22 years, thought my basement was dry.


OK, so the backsplash meets in the corners and one of those corners is 3/8" out of square in about 20" correct? and you are worried about how the backsplash will come together seeing how it's not at exactly 90 degrees? silicone
don't be so anal unless the granite color is gonna show a miniscul amount and be noticable, but I can't see how it could.
you're overanalyzing it.

We had a foundation leak that was draining through a hole in the slab where the old tub drain passed through. When the new drain was installed the hole was filled with concrete and the water had no where to go but into the basement.

I had to sink a sump well below the slab to lower the water table. The people who put this addition on did nothing to mitigate water issues.

Point taken...I might agree

solid surface can be scribed on site even by you if need be, a grinder or even a jigsaw, in the event the template is not exactly what the wall space is. Stone = less forgiving therefore allow room on the template

nice things cost money unfortunately

It does seem to be such a small top to be using a granite backsplash, I would do a tile backsplash if I were you

I was going to fabricate my own solid surface top but couldn't figure out where to buy the stuff unless it was ordered online.

It's a pretty simple space, if things are off they can be corrected, not like it's a 10' run of counter.

I sort of agree on the tile backsplash, the sides should be fine but the back might be tight.
