Before you buy a new kitchen countertop, sink and faucet for your kitchen, you should consult with a plumber who does the whole job. Plumbing might take more work and be a higher expense than you are anticipating.  Going over the options and any obstacles with a plumber makes it possible to make a wise and educated decision on how you should proceed.

Issues You May Confront

Extra costly issues may be encountered.  For example, a gentleman purchased a very nice granite countertop and kitchen sink from a company who doesn’t do plumbing.  That company came out and measured and made the countertop and attached the sink.  He was told he would need a plumber to hook the sink up.  They had no idea what would be involved.  It became a larger project to install because the sink was lower than the original one which meant the pipes didn’t match up with the pipes in the wall. It’s about $700-$800 to do the drain change after the sink and countertop are installed.

His garbage disposal would no longer fit under the sink making him unable to have a garbage disposal.

He also purchased a really nice touchless faucet.  However, the sink is a corner mount and the cables and supply lines from the manufacturer were not long enough.  This made it another unexpected extra expense to get it installed.

We do the complete kitchen countertops and sinks from sales to install.  It can be more efficient and cost effective to have us do the whole job.  If a customer comes to us first, we can go over all the options and additional costs and do the job the correct way from the start rather than trying to fix it after the fact.  So if you’re thinking of replacing your kitchen countertop and sink, give us a call before you purchase any products, and make a wise educated decision you’ll be happy with.
