Kitchens Design Dilemma

How to fix this corners

2 years ago

I just did a cabinet refacing and the backsplash was brought beyond the cabinet which is not to my liking. Also, the under frame sits on top of the backsplash which also looks odd. Third, I can see all the under lights and cables when seating in the adjacent family room. Any tips for these dilemmas?

Ignore it. If you wanted to replace everything and spend a fortune doing it right, you wouldn't have refaced.

It looks great. Beautiful countertop and backsplash.

^agree - I think it looks fine and would leave it alone - once other items are on the counter, I think you will stop noticing it

We usually end up with one or two things that aren’t right unless it’s a complete gut redo job. Annoying though.

You can install light rails to hide the under cabinet ligting a bit more. Which is to say, it kind of looks like you have a light rail, but it looks thinner than your lights. Ask your refacer to make it thicker.
