If the sink cannot be replaced i will have to replace about 30 linear feet of granite plus about 18 feet of backsplash that ranges from 15 inches to 24 inches high.
Replacing sink in granite countertop.
Open the lower cabinets and work the sink up into place using the help of a friend to support the sink from above while you move on to the next step.
The old sink appliances and counter need to be removed before the granite can be installed.
I want to switch out the sink for a single basin but i have been told by a couple of plumbers removing the old sink would probably break the granite.
The electricity and water are shut off to the kitchen and the sink is unhooked from the plumbing.
Thanks for any information.
I just moved into a new home that has a granite countertop with a double basin sink.
Work your way around the perimeter of the sink securing each clip into place.
But what if you feel the need to replace the undermount sink for one reason or another.
Squeeze caulk remover into the connection between the sink s rim and the granite countertop while standing above the sink.
Undermount sinks use a series of clips to help secure the sink to the countertop.
Sinks for granite countertops can be installed in one of two ways.
The thing with an under mount sink with a granite countertop however is that once the granite is cut the sink stays and if you choose so for a very long time.
After that bolt the countertop pieces together slide them against the wall and scribe the backsplash.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Finally use caulk to secure the countertops sink and range and use contact cement to add laminate strips to the edges.
Regardless of the mounting you can remove a sink from your granite countertop on your own but you ll need to be patient and careful to protect the stone.
Either overmounted or undermounted based on how they attach to the granite.
Would it be possible to have the granite cut and drop out the old sink and replace or cut a new hole for a single bowl sink.
My backsplash is also granite and behind the stovetop.
There is now way i could match the granite i have to just replace where the sink is.
