- In this video, we install a new undermount Sink and a 36" commercial style cooktop. After reaching out to many contractors, we finally found one who didn't ask us to buy new countertops.
Contractor: Elios Construction Services 248-513-7180
Cooktop: kitchenaid kcgc506jss 36"

Very useful vid… we are currently doing a DIY project like this and came across your vid.
Кухня очень красивая!
I think your hood is installed backwards
Really? How can you tell? 🤔 it has the same controls on both sides
Sink is great. Stove seems like overkill for that island size. And it projects out too much. Granite work is great.
Left side of the sink doesn't look like a straight edge. Was that the cam angle or is it not straight?
Its pretty straight (for a manual cut)
What type of contractor do you recommend looking for to install larger cooktop (similar to yours)? I am not sure whether to contact a handyman, kitchen remodel companies, or something else?
It's hard to find. I used Thumbtack (app) and searched for stone cutting and countertop installer.
One that wears a mask
Awesome video, thanks. My sink set-up is nearly identical as yours was (my granite is nearly identical as well). The double bowl is a space-waster as you note. I was thinking i would have to use a drop in sink replacement however you were able use an under-sink mount again. Did the installers refinish the edges once the cutes were made? Im just exploring right now, but I am ready to make the jump. Double bowl sinks are such an outdate waster of sink space and make washing oversized pots a challange!
Hi. Yes, the installers refinished the edges with a round drill bit with diamonds. It looks good but it is not machine type cut and polish, if you slide your finger on it you can feel a smooth but wavy surface, This however can't be seen from afar or by anyone who is not you. We did a year ago, and I'm still super happy we found this guy.

@@churro.thebulldog Right. I have beautiful granite, I can figure why the PO chose such an outdated sink type! Im ready to get rid of the space consuming sink, asap! Finding the right craftsman is the key, as well!
I found my contractor on Thumbtack (the app). This guy said he grew up in Greece cutting stone by hand.
well done.....are you not wearing earprotection for this?
These guys wore no protection, and all so, neither did I. I do recommend covering things and a mask. We dust literally everywhere.
Would love to know how much something like this costs for labor. I'd love a larger sink but afraid it's going to be $1000+ just for labor
We paid $1200 for both cuts. The island's cut and the sink.
@@churro.thebulldog thank you!
I don't think them guys wanted to be filmed😂
If he heated that seal up it would of came right down with ease no chisel and hammering
nah bro, that should have been sealed all around them to not dust tf out of your kitchen lmao. Enjoy a little bit of the coughs for some days
This is accurate! 😷
Safety note - these guys should be wearing full masks because exposure to that dust from stone cutting causes a potentially fatal lung diseased called silicosis.
Agree. We had dust in the most remote corners of the house and furniture.
I'm shocked they don't full respirator gloves and skin covering, that dust won't leave their lungs
Good job, good cuts, but plastic tarp and tape can really help with dust control.
Too lazy to cover the garbage disposal with small bag or something
We definitely know better now 😫
