Hi. So all you amazing people who have helped me along the way...today was the day of finally putting in the new vanity (we decided to just get help). I now realize I made a big mistake and I’m so angry at myself for not thinking about. When I tiled the wall, I didn’t think about ensuring the wall where the vanity will meet the wall is perfectly straight and aligned (I think you call it a plumb wall). In retrospect, I should’ve joint compounded there and measured/used a level to make sure it would be a perfect puzzle piece fit with the vanity. Come to think of it, maybe the vanity is not straight. Anyhow regardless, what can I do at this point to fix this?!?! The guys are still here installing, so at this point the solutions have to be something with the vanity in place.
the ends sit well against the wall and as you move to the center the gap is the biggest (my fingers fit into there). The back of the vanity has a “gap ridge” from the countertop to the vanity frame. Obviously need to silicone caulk, but the gap is way too big.
only things I can come up with:
1/ figure out some filler and caulk over that - but not confident I can come up with something that will look good
2/ install a short backsplash the length of the vanity to the walll...but I guess this doesn’t solve the problem, and it’s really not the “look” that I like/wanted
Ugh...so upset and freaking out.
