Dan the Cabinet Installer worked from shortly after 9:00 this morning until almost 9:00 this evening.
There was one problem after another with the crown moulding. The old lady was just not cooperating. The kitchen and bathroom ceilings are not plumb.
After a phone consultation with Mike our General Contractor, Dan installed the crown in the bathroom. It would be up to Mike to build up the ceiling at the right side of the floor-to-ceiling cabinet to close the gap between the ceiling and the crown.
In the kitchen he was able to install most of it; however, he had to cede defeat to the ceiling on the west side. Mike will have to work some magic to get the crown to fit properly. Dan will make one more trip to install it and a few more pieces of trim.
I told Dan that we were so glad that we had decided to have them install the cabinets. I don't think that an independent installer would have been so meticulous and so solicitous of our opinions.
Would anyone else have spent so many hours making the installation as perfect as is humanly possible? I doubt it.
