Common kitchen sink jobs
- Replacing a worn or chipped sink during a countertop change
- Upgrading to an undermount sink with a pull-down faucet
- Adding or replacing a garburator or dishwasher connection
- Moving the sink to an island during a renovation
How we install
For drop-in sinks, we set the sink in a bead of sealant, tighten the clips evenly, and connect the drain with new tailpieces and a fresh P-trap. Undermount sinks are fastened to the countertop by the counter installer or us before the faucet goes on. Supply lines, dishwasher drain and garburator are connected and tested before the cabinet is closed up.
- Disconnect and remove the old sink and plumbing.
- Set the new sink and faucet.
- Rebuild the drain with a proper trap arm slope.
- Connect appliances and test everything with water.
Island sinks
Moving a sink to an island is a bigger job. The drain needs venting, which can mean an air admittance valve where code allows or a vent loop, and the drain has to run through the floor to the stack. In Brampton this usually means a permit.

Questions we get
Can you reuse my old faucet?
If it is in good shape and fits the new sink holes, yes. Many people choose a new faucet at the same time.
