Lowering the stove mount

It seems like there is plenty of room to lower the stove so it is level with the countertop and then build a cover (or redo the entire counter top) so I have more counter space. Has anyone done this? Any suggestions for shops that would do this in the Sacramento/Central Valley area?

I've never seen them lowered, only covers. I would think that it may be a hazard with a pan on the burner and the flames getting to the countertop.

Looks doable but be sure heat shield or space to wood base of countertop adequate. We solved the same problem by adding a microfiber dish drying mat. About same size as grill top and 1/4" thick. Works great and a lot easier. Doubles as dish drainer.

Don't know of anyone in that area of CA but take a trip just north of you to Oregon in the Eugene/Coburg area where you will find a couple of great places that would do the job for you.

I guess I never took notice before. Wife said our friends have one, but it's electric.

Any shop names? I am always up for a road trip if I don't find something local.
