Installation of a 33" Vanity Cabinet to replace a Pedestal in the POWDER Room

We were in need of a craftsman to install a vanity cabinet in the POWDER room. The project was complex because there was a wall moulding that we had in mind to keep and didn't know how to install the countertop and the vanity with a backsplash under the moulding. Also holes were needed into the vanity's floor and its shelf for the drain coming from the washroom's floor. (Of course there was also the hole needed for the sink)
We went through three different craftsmen and never did we feel abandon by the Handyman. An accident happen to the first craftsman and the second one was not very interested. That did not stop the Handyman to follow-up with another craftsman. This one call himself a carpenter and a problem solver. What he accomplished was nothing less than perfect - replaces a portion of the moulding by the backsplash, cuts the countertop and places it under the backsplash .
The pedestal with the old sink have been removed from the place.
To install the vanity, holes had to be drilled into the floor of the cabinet because the drain and the other pipes were coming from the basement.
The countertop has been cut first to fit the cabinet and then the sink thereafter. The shelf in the cabinet has been cut to allow for the drain coming from the floor to go through it.
The wall moulding (under the mirror) has been removed and replaced by the backsplash with the countertop going under it
The sink has been centered under the mirror and the light fixture.
The drain for the sink and pipes for the tap have been connected.

Approximate cost of services:
$1,500.00

Company Response

Hi Maurice, Yes we ran into a bit of a problem when the original craftsman got injured in a car accident. He will be fine eventually but is out of commission for awhile, which is why we had to find someone else for your project. Our 'backup craftsman' is also a very talented carpenter and cabinet-maker so we knew we left you in good hands.
