I know a drop-in sink with stone counters is not ideal, but it hardly seems worth it to pay $500 or more to buy and have installed a new sink (not to mention what additional faucet cutouts might cost), when the existing sink is perfectly fine and already has a practically new brushed nickel Delta faucet.

I'm looking to personally generate some blog posts for my website and would like to hire someone to proofread them, format them into more reader-friendly formats, and do any SEO tweaking that's required.
