Fitting the Vanity Top and Sink

Ernie Wernecke of Princeton Custom Cabinetry is back to show Bob how the vanity top is customized to accommodate a bulging wall. Wernecke scribes then sands the back edge of the vanity countertop so that it will fit snugly against the wall before receiving the backsplash. Bob points out that gaps could be hidden with the backsplash, but Wernecke explains that the undermount sink already touches the front rail of the cabinet. If the vanity top were pushed forward by the bulge, it would keep the vanity doors from closing completely. Wernecke sands the vanity counter and sets it in place, making it ready for the backsplash. Bob remarks that once installed the full wall mirror will hide any gaps between the backsplash and the wall. More information
