Default Counterytop doesn't meet tiles

Why was the countertop not built higher to fill the gap?


It wasn't.

You could just fill the gap with appropriately cut wood trim, then caulk.


I like that suggestion, as Steve also gave. The only problem I can see
with it is that (naturally) it will be at the back of the sink where
water can run back into it. A spray of vinegar or clean-up cleaners
that might be used to clean the counter top would not be that good for
wood trim. Just washing up each day would tend to wear out the wood
trim much faster (of course) than the Cambria or tile would ever wear
out; then what to do.

I think it would look nice, though.
Thanks for your suggestion.
