I was shocked! I had to argue with the installer to get him to leave the cutouts from the sink and cooktop. He kept insisting they belonged to the company he worked for. Since hubby and I were the contractors for our home I knew exactly how much we ordered, how much it cost per square foot and how much we paid. When I told him that, doing the math for him, he wasn't sure what to say.

Though I'm generally very easy to get along with, that really ticked me off, so I told him if he took them I'd call the police and report him as steeling while working in our home and give them the license plate of the vehicle he was driving. He left the cutouts.
