We were contacted by our Building Support Co-ordinator via an email with the subject line "Water filter", asking us to give them a call to discuss this matter. The water filter is standard but we had deleted it in our internal variation, my immediate suspicion was that they have installed the ceaser stone benchtop and drilled a hole for it! Well after calling our BSC my suspicions were correct. She was nice enough to explain the situation and wanted to know if we wanted the water filter at no cost which would include 2 complimentary cartridges. I mentioned that we specifically deleted this item and got a water outlet installed in the fridge cavity so we wouldn't need this. Anyway I asked for some photos of the hole and the benchtop and we would think it over. It's unfortunate this has happened and I can only guess this will be an expensive exercise to replace the benchtop, and the process of removing it could also damage other items. We're in two minds about this as we wanted to keep the bench top clear of anything but the tap. Even though this item is free, it really isn't something we want, but on the other hand it would be nice to have filtered water that isn't chilled plus it's easier to change the water filter under the sink than behind the fridge. The other option is that we could convert the water filter to a soap dispenser post handover. What should we do?

We received these photos from M and they mentioned that the stone company would also provide 2 chopping boards free of charge, in ‘Ice Snow’.
Below is a soap dispenser we are considering for the powder room vanity and maybe where the water filter would be installed.

Today I received the two chopping boards from the stone company. They are so heavy, the trip from the mail room to my desk wasn't the easiest task. I really should have asked them to ship this home instead of the office. I'll either have to take them home one by one on the train or pick them up by car on the weekend. Which makes me wonder how practical these will be to use as cheese platers or chopping boards.

I would prefer the square neck tap instead
