So, what’s the real story here?
Counters are installed whole like that sometimes. I can imagine that maybe the contractor’s router broke or was lost or stolen and they had to come back the next day with the router to cut the proper hole but in the meantime he just rough cut a couple holes with the buzz saw so that the homeowners can use their sink.
Not seeing the problem here.
Is it that you forgot to install the garbage disposal?
But the tap is perfect
It’s got that rustic look to it.

This is why Flex Tape ™️ was invented.
I’m more fascinated by the countertop. Although thin and probably composite rather than natural stone, it’s still stone and that can get really expensive. It might honestly get more expensive to do this and fix it later than just do it right from the getgo.
Looks like corian, so plastic. So long as those cuts don’t extend past the basin, it can be fixed with a router and a couple bits. If they do extend past the basin, probably bottom right, then you could fix it with resin and make it pass anything but a close inspection with some skill.
It might be the type of basin that drops in from the top, which would be easier to fix and would be more likely to hide the bad cuts under the flange.
Repairs on marbled Corian can be pretty hard to match cleanly, so hopefully it isn’t that. Whenever I’ve installed these we always cut the sinks out at the factory, but I guess you could use a router onsite 🤷
The repair wouldn’t be perfect, that is why it would require skill and no close scrutiny. Even an OK job would at least stop water from going through and that is the bigger issue once the basin install is unfucked.
If it works, it works 🤷
My guess is that they followed the manual, skipping a few steps, glued the sink before cutting, panicked and then voilà.

Any idea what material the countertop is made of? Looks like acrylic.
I’d actually love to know what kind of lightweight / cheap materials there are that hold up to at least 100°C heat?
Would guess Formica?
Maybe Corian.
Yea that’s my guess, or one of the cheaper brands like himacs if they are willing to fuck around with it like this haha
Some hipster design shit right there.
It’s rustic really.
