Granite countertop installation

Help! Just had granite countertops installed today and feeling like the job is unacceptable. Would like to hear from experts to confirm this is not standard work and I'm on track with complaints.

1. Excessive caulk under countertops. There is a 1/2 inch gap between cabinets and granite filled with caulk.

2. Dishwasher doesn't look level to me. It was installed by third party subcontractor recommended by the tile/granite company. However, I think it was the tile/granite company attaching the dishwasher to the cabinets that made it uneven.

2. Metal sink brace. My faux under sink drawer fronts normally clip into cabinet frame. Now I'm not sure how to attach them because the metal sink frame is in the way.

    These aren't granite problems. They are cabinet installer and unlevel floor problems.

    Cabinets have to be installed level and plumb, regardless of the out of level floor. Yours weren't and didn't provide a level substrate for the stone. The issues are owned by the cabinet installer, but you've passed the point of no return on any fix.

    The DW is sitting on the unlevel floor. It should have variably adjustible legs, so just slide it out a bit and screw out the legs to level it. It's dead simple to do.

    Thanks. I agree it's a cabinet issue. My concern is no conversation was had before or during installation regarding the cabinets being level. Had I known I would have had them fixed before installation.

    I agree the cabinets and/or floor were out of level. A good installer would always level cabinets during installation.
