How To Do A Sink Installation In Townson

There are six basic steps that one needs to know in order to complete a sink installation in Townson. The only problem that one should be aware of is that if one step is missed or completed wrong there may be no way to fix it. This is why one usually looks for an experienced plumbing service to the sink installation in Townson.

The first step in the sink installation process is to use a template which is usually provided in the sink package that was purchased and trace around the template. To make sure that one is able to properly trace the template one should look at taping the template to the area where you want the sink installation to take place. Then one should be able to take a marker and trace around it without fear of the template moving while they are tracing.

The next step would be to use a drill with a 3/8 inch in diameter hole in all four corners. Then one will want to take a saber saw and cut from one corner to another cutting inside the line that was marked previously. Once one has the section cut out one will want to flip the sink they purchased over and install the sink strainer. One will want to do this now because it is easier than waiting and installing it when the sink is in place. After that is properly installed one will want to place caulk or plumbers putty around the outer side of the sink lip in order to seal the sink to the counter.

The next step would be to carefully flip the sink over and place it in the opening you created earlier. During this process make sure that you are careful that your fingers are out of the way as well as making sure that if the sink is too heavy you have someone to assist in lowering it into the opening. The next step would be to make sure that the clips that will further assist in getting a tight seal of the counter and the sink would be to follow the sinks directions on where to place the mounting clips and tighten with either a nut driver or screw driver. At this point there should be excess caulk or putty that might need to be cleaned off the top.
