Sorry, I said hinges when I meant drawer slides at one point in the post. Thanks for asking for pictures. When I took some crappy iPhone pics I could easily see some of the hinges that need adjustment. For example, in this one you can see clearly that the slide on the one side is much closer to the front than the other one: This would account for the fact that it doesn't soft close (further back side is not catching the thingy-do in the front on the bottom of the drawer) and for the fact it sticks out a bit, since I'm guessing the one is too far forward for a full close. Tried to get that too: On another one, the closer inspection showed me that the issue was the slide wasn't level. Since the bottom of the drawer lines up with the one below but the top sticks out. This one is really horrible and baffling to me why they wouldn't fix it right then: My husband is thinking that the guy wanted to go home and since he knows someone will have to come back out with new doors, he just left all this stuff (they ordered all our full length wall cabinet doors an inch short, which they swear has never happened before, so they don't know yet if they screwed up the measurements or the door company screwed up. I'm having a lot of supposed firsts, like the faucet and sink company that says I am the first person ever to get a magna-tite Delta faucet with the magnet missing - lucky me).

@rmdenoble, you can request anything you want, but be prepared to pay for the services if reasonable evidence isn’t found to support whatever action you request. Great advice again from MwM, and I agree that is a likely source. With that said, the fears you are describing are legit. That does happen. You have this issue that you’ve noticed, and when the installer comes to inspect there is no smell to be found. While that can be disheartening, it just means that you need to take some additional steps. I’d suggest the following: - have the original installer out. Let them know if your concerns. Have them inspect for that. Ask that they inspect the exterior of the opening for any signs or sources of water infiltration. You could potentially ask for the lower piece of interior casing to be removed as well. If they are resistant to this, gently let them know that you are very sure that this issue exists and you’ll have an independent third party out for a second opinion if they don’t find or address anything. Try to convey that in a non-confrontational manner, as the best case scenario is having them fix this under warranty and on good terms. - if that doesn’t produce results, follow through on the promise to have someone else out. Don’t call another window company, you’ll end up with a salesman trying to pitch you on replacing these 3 year old windows. Call a specialist in indoor air quality. They will be able to test to either reinforce or debunk the perceived problem, and then help trace the source as well. If that leads back to the window installation then you can take that evidence and request correction from the installer. You may ask that they pay for that IAQ guy‘s services retroactively as well.... OR, if the problem doesn’t lead back to the window, you’d simply proceed in addressing whatever issue is found and let the window guy off the hook... and crazier things have happened. Anecdotally, I was once in a similar situation as the “window guy”. Customer swore up and down that the smell was coming from the window and we needed to fix it, yet upon removal of casings everything was dry as a bone. We later found a massive patch of mold growing in the corner of his closet behind clothes and suitcases that were stacked to the ceiling. He had that addressed and the problem was solved. I still think the window is a likely source here, but be sure to take a planned and measured approach.

That stippling comes from a roller with a nap that is TOO LONG. Nothing else is wrong with it. This is precisely why it is 'best practice' to refinish the floor all at once instead of spot fix areas with the 2K products like Bona or Loba. Either live with it...or polish it down. A car polishing machine (those big hand held machines that weight 15 lbs with the big SHAMOISE on it...yah...one of those) can help with the gloss. Remember: it's a floor. It will look like 'it is always under foot' in about 2 years. And that's the way it should be. If it ain't broke...don't fix it. The finish is in perfect health. The 'look' is what you are bothered by.

Liane there’s brands like mocket that make counter outlets and some make gfic counter outlets too. I just thought you were against the idea is why I didn’t mention it. Anyways, they pop up out of the counter so they aren’t just exposed sitting upwards. On another note, I assumed if you put the outlet on the wall you’d be doing them sideways...I should’ve been more specific and clarified that I think sideways would be best. It just doesn’t look like they will totally fit even sideways, correct?
