zoomed out view

Huh. I have no idea if that is right or wrong per se, but it seems to me that it could trim out alright. Maybe.

I am curious now to see what the experienced have to say.

I'd probably go for the trim piece which should look fine, but, if he can make that fit tight, why not the original cabinet apron? The trim piece should look just fine, though.

Great cabinet color, btw.

thx, deedles.

what do people do with the cut edges of the trim piece? get matching paint color? leave it? use touch up paint?

david-thought about that. just don't know how it would end up looking. does anyone have pictures?

My farm house sink has a trim piece installed which is fit more closely to the sink. It does not have any unfinished cut edges except the edge cut to fit the sink but that is fit so closely you cannot see the cut edges.

Food- that looks great. So it would mean I would have to order a whole new panel with finished edges on 3 sides and have GC cut from that. Another concern is whether there is enough room between top of the doors and the bottom of the sink- there is like 1/2" there- too narrow to be able to cut?

verver:

A color matched caulk properly applied will make that almost disappear. Don't worry about it.

I had the same issue with my Rohl's farmhouse sink. The painter just caulked and painted now you can't even notice it looks great. My cabinets were just painted, so matching paint was not an issue.

Verver, Thanks. Whether a panel can be cut with 1/2" below the sink is a question for your contractor. I have only 1 1/4" inches below the sink and above the cabinet doors.

Sometimes a drip edge is installed below a farm sink and looks good as well as being practical. That would work for your half inch below the sink, the sides could be filled in with an overlay panel like Food shows. Google for images. Most farm sinks without an overlay panel look fine but your sink is significantly less wide than your cabinet, that is why it is more noticeable.

Not the best cut job.

There's a photo of one that's well done on the link. Caulk will be best because a trim piece cannot go around the radius on the bottoms without looking odd.

thanks everyone. no, not the best cut job. think we'll just fill the gaps w/ some sort of material...seems the most reasonable solution....now if i can decide on the reveal....
