Total Cost of Material is
roughly $700.00 This price does not include labor or any other potential
fees. Labor prices do vary from region to region, quality of the job, and
other important factors, so it is difficult to post the total cost for this
project.

| New Sink Top -
Remove old sink by FIRST by disconnecting
the plumbing. After the plumbing is disconnected try prying carefully
the back of the sink from the wall. This is usually attached by a blob
of caulk. If you have a inlay sink, you will need to remove the 4 to 6
screws underneath the sink first. After the sink is loosen the sink
should be attached with plumbers putty between the sink and the vanity,
or sometimes caulk. Remove the old caulk and putty and replace with new
materials. I recommend using new plumbing parts if the plumbing is over
10 years old. It's easier to replace when the sink is replace, and it
helps avoid future plumbing work. |

New Vanity
(Base for Sink / Ranges from $100 to $500+) -- Another option is to
refinish your assisting vanity. In this example, the old vanity was
cheap and cracked, so the vanity was replaced with a higher quality
material. The old vanity was attached to the wall with only 2 large
nails on a small thin wood strip on the top third of the vanity. When
removed, check for wood rot. If you have
dry rot
, this is a good time to replace subfloor where needed.
Notes: Verify closely the width and length of the BOTTOM of the
vanity to see if you might need to replace your flooring if the new
vanity exposes old flooring. |
