update on Cabinets

We never received a call back today. The guys delivering even tried and never received a call. They went ahead and set most of the kitchen cabinets in place but not attached. Now the problems: One cabinet was made too long but this was due to a change in the size of a doorway. We had our kitchen doorway enlarged so that threw off the other measurements which never trickled down. They took it back to have it cut down. Second: The color is wrong. They talked about coming here to change the color which will cause some strong order by the lacquer. They want to do it in the kitchen, which Dad said No because it would really bother me. They asked about outside on the lawn, I am not sure how the HOA will handle that one. We shall see what will happen there. Third: The plumbing for the kitchen sink is not close to where the cabinet sits so that will have to be moved over. Fourth: the exhaust for the stove is off so that will have to be moved too. Fifth: They put the electrical connection for the double oven on the wrong side. They put it behind the new pantry. Hmm, I think that will need to be moved.

Remember, my comment about Murphy's Law... it is happening big time. They had cabinets for the master bathroom and it isn't even ready yet for cabinets. They just started finishing the walls today. That will be at least two days away from being finished and ready for cabinets. After all, the bathtub just went in yesterday.

Just some Oops!
