Wall Tile

On Wednesday my contractor installed the marble wall tile with two horizontal glass tile features. As expected, his work was fantastic. My kitchen would be done today if we were not waiting for the delivery of the second cooktop and second dishwasher. Those were supposed to come today, but that turned into “tonight” as the day progressed. My contractor says that he will come by tomorrow to finish up.

The first (and only) mistake of my contractor’s team is the additional, unneeded holes they drilled in my above-countertop cabinets. I am installing handles for everything below the countertop and knobs for everything above. One of the workers mistakenly drilled two holes for the above-countertop cabinets which means one hole too many. There is a picture below of the cabinet door after he attempted to fix the superfluous hole. New cabinet doors are on the way.

The same marble/glass backsplash from a littler farther out. No grout yet.

I gave the worker his chance to repair the door to avoid having to replace it. You can see from this picture that the damage was not completely hidden.
