@deaneng85404 жыл бұрын
Couple notes: when you drill the lag screws or other screw you may use make sure you drilling into the center of the stud so you don't hit a water line. I use my drill with a small bit to find where the edges are on the wall so I know for sure where the center is. And just push the bit into the wall barely pass the thickness of the sheetrock. And I also have my water key with me and know how to turn the water off in the street in case the SHTF, IE, angle stop doesn't close off cause it's broken. Had this happen recently while water is gushing out but good thing I was ready and ran out to the street to turn it off!

I always wondered with these two piece pedestal sinks, should you be putting some kind of silicone or barrier between the sink leg and the top of the sink. But it looks like with this video no. The pipes just make it all come together. This is a great video that I’m going to be using this weekend. The only tricky part is cutting the pipe because I don’t have a tool so I’m going to have to find a pipe that is short enough to fit.

Does the sink need to be attached to the wall and would silicone secure it? I'm wondering about a " professionally installed" pedestal sink in a family member's home. A timely answer will be most helpful.Thank you!
@stayfrosty10122 жыл бұрын
Although this isn't exactly a timely response, I can answer that for you as a chippie's apprentice. If the sink is a stand-alone floating sink than it should be secured to the wall using a bracket and bolted to the studs/noggin (blocking) behind the drywall. IF the sink is a pedestal sink, most of the weight will be supported by the pedestal beneath it, and in that case it is alright to be caulked to the wall. Hope this helps, despite it being a year late 😂

You push the anchor through the wall with the spring-loaded wingnut on the screw. When you push that part through the wall it springs open, then you tighten the screw and it pulls the wings to the inside surface of the wall, thus tightening it securely to the wall as you tighten it down.
