Replacing an undermount sink in a marble countertop
It’s come to the point where I LOATHE my small double sink/disposal combo and I’m debating my capacity to remove and replace with a single basin stainless steel sink (going back in with an undermount seems like the best option given the cranky counters). I was under there looking at things and from what I can tell, the original installer opted to attach it to the underside of the slab itself and just… boost it in place? And attached the supports to the cabinets on either side? Is this going to be the biggest PITA and I should leave it as is and deal with my dumb double sink… While I’m under there messing with things I will probably swap out the faucet as well, the pull-out nozzle has been replaced twice and they don’t make a matching brushed finish anymore so it’s a shiny sprayer on a brushed neck and looks silly. That’s beside the point. WHAT SAY YE, REDDIT? Get a utility knife to cut whatever adhesive is sealing it to the underside, undo the supports and see what happens? Yolo? (I did not pick the marble counters, but I’m not gonna rip them out just because they’re the pickiest things on earth.) submitted by /u/cheepcheepmcbeepbeep [link] [comments]
