Is a support board necessary? This seems like extra work.
works as expected.
Pedestal seems more complicated than installing a toilet.
Gonna replace the sink? Might as well redo the whole bathroom
I never anchored the pedestal to the floor, and I went right into the Sheetrock to mount the sink using screws and plastic wall anchors. After caulking the sink and the base of the pedestal, my sink is still holding solid after 20 years. Never moved.
All these people saying they left stuff out, no duh Sherlock, it's a 2minute video. Obviously takes more than that but there are better, more in depth videos on YouTube. I just see this as a quick overview/advertisement
Unlike me that vanity pulls out
What if your pedestal sink does not come with mounting hardware? Is mounting hardware generic or is it specific to your sink/pedestal?
Highly recommend put sink drain in before attaching to wall
Great video.
Thanks for sharing…
Thanks. I have a few more hours of demo work and it'll be time to start the fun portion of the project – putting the new bathroom back together. Very informative and helpful video.
Really? A wood bathroom floor? This is essentially a useless guide for the vast majority of bathrooms. I have tile, like most do, and a simple lag bolt doesn't just screw into tile. So time to look elsewhere.
I wish it were this easy. We have a tiny vanity/basin combo and the porcelain basin broke when a glass jar was dropped in it. I thought a pedestal sink would be a nice change and not much more will fit in our tiny bathroom other than the same thing we have. But this is more complicated than my skills can endure.
The didn't mention the most important thing. locate your water main shut off and make sure it works.
My floor is porcelain tile. The plumber secured the pedestal to the tile with some sort of black mastic goo that he got all over the bathroom. He also cracked the pedestal and tried to hide it by gluing that back together. Everything thing was good to go in a couple months and that plumber will never darken my door again but putting this thing in on tile is a big deal and rerouting pipes? Forget about it.
Level it after you’ve drilled holes is it? Load of rubbish
It's not this easy folks. Doable sure but you're gonna drop some f-bombs before the day is through
There is no fun on doing that, if you are just the Spector yes ofcourse
You totally skipped over securing the pedestal to the floor!
I'm trying to repair pipes under one, and I can't figure out how to remove the pedestal.
If it was that easy mate we'd all be doing our own install.. you left all the tricky stuff out .. no good !
when you finish the pedestal won't fit so make one out of wood.
Would have been nice to see the finished project at a height other than 7 or 8 feet tall. How does the finished plumbing look people?
