Demolish Existing Countertop & Wall Arch

What happens here

Begin by carefully removing the existing countertop and any tile backsplashes from the breakfast bar area. Next, using 2x4 lumber, frame in the arched pass-through opening above the bar to create a rectangular opening. Install insulation within the framed sections for sound deadening and thermal properties. Cover the framed area with drywall panels, securing them with screws. This step prepares the wall for new finishes and structural components.

Goal: Remove the old countertop and backsplashes from the breakfast bar, then frame and drywall the existing arched opening to create a solid wall for the new built-in.
