Reading Time: < 1 minute

The Challenge:

This is a home where the owners noticed some hardwood floor cupping on a Friday and called to set an appointment for Monday at 3pm. Upon our arrival the owners had heard a loud snap and greeted us at the door.

The Idea:

On removal of counter tops and cabinetry, the owners decided to upgrade from laminate to granite, and replace their sink too.

The Details:

We tore into the flooring and cabinetry to find the problem and had it fixed within a few minutes. Turns out a refrigerator water line fractured and sprung a leak.

The Solution:

The owners decided to upgrade from laminate to granite, and replace their sink to just to get the fridge out and stop the leak. Cleanup and repairs were extensive however, the result are stunning. We assisted the owners with material selections and were able to keep a temporary kitchen operational. I even took them to dinner the night their floors were being sealed.

The Time Frame: 7 weeks
