the tool he used to lift up the sink matched the colour of the countertop perfectly
Nothing wrong with that vanity and counter-top.
Looked better before
I liked the old vanity
How do you shut the water off with those valves being so close Lol
No escussions?
Your presentation is very cool, and I love all brands. Here in Egypt, like Duravit, Ideal Standard and Grohe, I enjoy a lot of repairs and installations of these types. Thank you so much.
