Kitchen fitting problem

Ilovemilkbottles

Sorry, I've accidently posted twice!!

A new kitchen is being fitted in my rental property and I've just noticed that the breakfast bar has not been fitted to the plan. Basically it should've been cut lengthwise to 4000mm to butt up against the wall but the fitter has left it at 600mm meaning that the width doesn't line up with the doors on the adjacent wall and floor units (at right angles to the breakfast bar if that makes sense). The corner has already been mitred to the worktop under the wall units.

I know it's only a 2000mm difference but it is a small kitchen and every centimetre counts. It also means that whoever is sitting at the breakfast bar will be very near the oven and hob on the adjacent wall therefore posing a safety risk.

Can this be overcome without ordering whole new worktop as I understand that it is very expensive to mitre a corner but I am not at all happy about it and am not sure what to do next?

I would appreciate your feedback

If the fitter agreed to work to the plan and has done something to different without your approval, or has done something wrong, it would be up to him to rectify if at his expense. I'm assuming he hasn't been paid yet, so you hold the trump cards.

Thanks Phill. Will it mean a whole new worktop though or can it be "patched up" somehow? Also, how much does it cost to mitre a corner (apologies if I'm sounding a bit thick)?
