Need a company that does this type of countertops that'll also install AND do the " plumbing" for a kitchen sink . ( finding a couple companies that will do everything but plumb the sink )
24 year old Sink has started to leak, need to get a new one.
May as well go for the whole ball of wax and get new countertops installed around it.
Please, just a company that is south/ south west of Wake county for am closer to that area.
Don't want any " out of our area" canned responses like have gotten so many other times from the Raleigh area.
A company from Apex , Cary, New Hill, Holly springs, Moncure or possibly Pittsboro -- may be willing to oblige.
Thanks if anyone can help .
Maybe the same kind of problem we had when we wanted to change our undermount kitchen sink and faucets with a pre-existing granite countertop.
Had to hire TWO different guys. One was a countertop guy, the other a plumber. NONE of the plumbers would touch that sink due to the risk of damaging the granite. NONE of the countertop guys would touch the plumbing - they mentioned not being a licensed plumber.
so if no plumbers would touch that sink, how did you get the sink installed ?
Are you saying the plumbers only did the plumbing part under the counter but left situating the actual sink/faucets into your existing countertop by the countertop company ?
If so, what a PITA.
Just saw a company out of Apex called miracle makeovers, anyone heard of/used them? May be another simpler/cheaper option.
Am in dire straits here, new dishwasher recently put in by big box store that screwed that install up , now the sink has gone bust.

I guess I didn't explain our experience properly. Granite countertops, stainless steel undermount sink. New faucet. Nothing fancy or unusual.
The countertop guy pulled out the old sink and installed the new undermount sink. The plumber came in afterwards, put in the new faucet, reconnected the dishwasher and garbage disposal, and reconnected the under sink hot water heater.
The plumber wouldn't touch installing in the new sink because of the undermount and/or the granite.. The countertop guy wouldn't touch the new faucet and related plumbing because he wasn't a licensed plumber.
We ordered our sink and faucet online, counter folks cut the openings to fit both, per the dimensions I provided. They installed the undermount sink, I plumbed the sink and dishwasher and installed the faucet. It will be difficult to find a counter shop with a licensed plumber on staff.
Our countertop vendor cut the countertop to fit the sinks and faucets that we provided and installed them. But the plumbing connections to the cold/hot water feeds and the drain had to be done by a plumber. Two vendors may be inevitable for you.
Be sure to verify that the connections between the sinks and the countertop are firm.
