Several steps are required when installing a sink in your kitchen. You found the right material and the ideal location for your kitchen sink, so it looks like you're ready to get started in his system!
Installing a sink
First, if you want to integrate your faucet to your sink, consider drilling a hole for your future tap. Thereafter, know that there are many sinks that have pre drilled holes in the spaces provided for the laying of a évierrobinet then you can, using a hammer to "break" this pre drilling.
The advantage of going to the sink to put your life easier: Contrary to the sink-in, installing a sink requires, in most cases, no cutting of your work. Rather convenient, is not it?
Ask and fix your sink in your work but do not forget to apply a bead of silicone caulk around the sink, its contours, to prevent possible infiltration of water.
Know that your sink is "heavy", as is the case with ceramic sink or granite sink, the less it needs fixing, since its weight supported.
Installing a sink
Above all, know that there is some checking to do before you embark on this "adventure". In fact, you're about to sink-in, which means integrating it into your work. Let us be certain that it will not bother anything once installed, the water supply and all piping, for example. You must be able, once your sink-in, easy access to your piping. Finally, it is very important that your plan, and therefore your future sink, are well horizontal. Check this with a spirit level, convenient and fast.
Then comes the cutting of your work. To determine the space needed for your sink, the right solution is to return it in order to be able to trace its contours; do not forget to leave a margin of about 2 to 3 inches to the edges of a éviEncastrer evierer designed to hold. You can finally move on to cutting, true: Equipped with an electric saw and drill the holes for the corners, you're good. Handyman for a day or handyman always, this is your moment!
Now, on mounting the sink now. it should break your sink with the locations marked and precut by the supplier of your sink. Remember, however, to adapt your tools to the materials of your sink, in the case of a sink resin, for example, use a hole saw with your drill.
Prepare the location and installation of your faucet before finalizing the installation of your recessed sink is good advice to follow. Once done, connect the sink off the water as well as drainage system.
If your sink is not provided with a seal to accoudement, apply silicone sealant on the edge of your work plan and install your sink hole cut in the first. Remember to always check that it is level, even out the spirit level at any time.
This is your undermount sink! To seal your kitchen sink, consider installing a net silicone around the edges, and voila!
Now more excuses to get started in setting up your future kitchen sink, especially when you see these gems aesthetics and design, right?
Good luck to you!
