Professional Installation Process

Measurement & Planning

Measure your bathroom space carefully. Confirm vanity will fit through doorways. Check existing plumbing locations and determine if relocation is needed. Verify electrical outlet placement for lighting.

Removal & Prep

Disconnect old plumbing, remove old vanity and sink. Inspect wall condition behind vanity. Patch and repair drywall if needed. Ensure walls are smooth and level.

Plumbing Modifications

Relocate supply lines if needed for new vanity configuration. Adjust drain position if required. For double sinks, install second set of supply lines and drains. Ensure proper venting.

Vanity Installation

Level and secure vanity to wall studs (wall-hung) or position on floor (cabinet style). Shim if needed for perfect level. Attach securely - vanities support significant weight with countertop.

Sink & Countertop Installation

Install countertop (if separate from vanity). Mount sink using appropriate method for sink type - undermount requires special support, vessel sinks need proper sealing, drop-ins need secure clips.

Faucet & Drain Installation

Install faucet with proper sealing. Connect supply lines with quality braided hoses. Install drain assembly with proper putty and tight connections. Install p-trap.

Testing & Finishing

Turn on water, test for leaks at all connections. Run faucet and check drain operation. Caulk along backsplash and sides. Clean and polish. Final walkthrough.

Choosing the Right Vanity

Size Considerations

24-30"

Powder rooms, small bathrooms

36-48"

Standard bathrooms, single sink

60-72"

Master baths, double sinks

Measure carefully - account for door swing, toilet clearance (minimum 15" from center to any obstruction), and walking space.

Storage Needs

Consider what you need to store: toiletries, towels, cleaning supplies, hair tools, etc.

More Storage:

• Traditional cabinet vanity
• Multiple drawers
• Built-in organizers
• Medicine cabinet above

Less Storage (Cleaner Look):

• Floating vanity with drawers
• Pedestal sink (minimal storage)
• Wall shelving alternative
• Open shelf vanity

Faucet Configurations

Sink drilling determines faucet options:

Single-hole: Modern widespread or single-lever faucets
4" centerset: Traditional three-piece faucets
8" widespread: Separate spout and handles
Wall-mounted: Faucet mounted on wall, not sink/counter

Countertop Materials

Countertop choice affects sink installation method:

• Laminate:

Drop-in sinks only, budget-friendly

• Quartz/Granite:

Any sink type, very durable, premium

• Solid Surface:

Integrated or undermount, seamless

• Wood:

Requires careful sealing, rustic look

Double Sink Installations

Why Add a Second Sink?

Double vanities are one of the most requested bathroom upgrades. Two sinks eliminate morning congestion, provide personal space for couples, and significantly increase your home's value. Master bathrooms with double sinks are expected by today's buyers.

Benefits:

✓ Eliminate morning bathroom conflicts
✓ Personal space for each person
✓ More counter space
✓ Individual storage areas
✓ Increases home value significantly

Requirements:

• Minimum 60" vanity length
• Double drain installation
• Two sets of supply lines
• Proper drain venting
• Adequate counter space between

Plumbing Considerations:

→
Drain Configuration: Each sink needs its own trap and drain line. We connect both to existing drain stack with proper venting to prevent siphoning and gurgling.
→
Supply Lines: Two hot and two cold supply lines needed. Existing single supply is split using manifold or tee connections.
→
Venting: Critical for proper drainage. We ensure adequate venting for both drains to prevent slow drainage or gurgling sounds.
