    Pre-fabricated Granite Countertops?

    prefabricated granite is typically a lesser grade of granite fabricated in China. It's a lot cheaper for a reason.

    Is this a lousy granite installation?

    Havasu- Timbo's job was obviously botched from the beginning it sounds like. But not all granite installations go this way. People should definitely research their fabricators and there are plenty of good ones out there. Usually you can view your slabs & be there when they lay out the...

    Winter 2011

    That's pretty bad. Just imagine those people in Texas & all the southern states that are getting this like never before - they must feel like they are in the twighlight zone or something!

    Super Bowl Poll

    I just don't much like that Uselessburger. He's gross ! And why do all these football guys have to have full beards ? ! See where my priorities are...... I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh is favored & my hubby & all his friends would vote for them, but I have other factors in my decisions...

    Winter 2011

    It's beautiful stuff, but there comes a time when enough is enough! I think the whole country's just about had enough ! We didn't have it as bad here, but everything was pretty much shut down for 2 days & Indianapolis has been shut down for almost 4 days now. People playing hockey in parking...

    Kitchen Bar Repair

    Yeah- looks like you need a few more brackets, they should be spaced out @ every 30"-36". Make sure they are at the studs & follow "Noose's" directions. Good Luck - I don't really see any drywall repair needed. just kinda push that one area back in & it won't show once top is back on

    use of space question

    Wow that's sounds like a hard decision. I'd scream real loud if my husband wanted to take space out of my kitchen, yet a small bathroom is hard to live with also. Sounds like pushing out the back wall is your best option. You'd be surprised what 7 more feet will get you. I'd get a pro to...

    Is this a lousy granite installation?

    Oh - yeah that color match at the sink NO WAY! And to do it right there at the sink front & center. Come on man!

    Is this a lousy granite installation?

    Oh my! That is definitely unacceptable work. At the oven cabinet - is there an "ear" at the front edge ? It'd be the front frame & 3/4" th. & the box of the cabinets attaches to it about 1/4" in from the edge. That could be causing your gap & where a backsplash would cover that up. I know you...
