Sink, Basin & Vanity Installation Bayswater & Eastern Suburbs

We install kitchen sinks, bathroom basins and vanity units for homes across Bayswater and Melbourne's eastern suburbs. Whether it is a quick like-for-like swap or a new fit-out as part of a renovation, we get the plumbing in properly so it drains cleanly and stays leak free.

Sink & Basin Installation Bayswater

A sink or basin is only as good as the plumbing behind it

A new sink or basin looks great until the connection underneath starts to weep, the trap is set up wrong and the bowl drains slowly, or the seal lets go and water tracks into the cabinet below. The fitting at the front is the easy part. The hot and cold supply, the drain, the trap and the waste behind it are what decide whether it lasts.

Common reasons people in Bayswater call us for sink, basin and vanity work:

  • Old kitchen sink or basin cracked, stained, or past its best
  • Like-for-like swap to a newer model or finish
  • New vanity unit going into a bathroom
  • Kitchen or bathroom renovation needing the plumbing done at the right stage
  • Slow draining bowl from a poorly set up trap or waste
  • Leak under the sink from a DIY connection that was not quite right

Whatever the reason, we can usually talk through the job over the phone and give you a quote before we arrive.

Vanity & Renovation Fit-Outs Bayswater

Swaps, new vanities and renovation fit-outs done right

Most of the work falls into two types. A like-for-like swap, where the supply and waste are already in the right place and we lift the old sink or basin out, set the new one in, reconnect the hot and cold supply, refit the trap and waste, and reseal it to the bench or wall. Or a new fit-out, where a vanity unit goes in fresh or the layout changes and we run or move supply and waste lines to suit.

On a full kitchen or bathroom renovation we work alongside the carpenter and tiler so the rough-in goes in at the right stage and the final connection lands once the cabinetry and benchtop are set. We seal the sink or basin properly so it does not move or weep. If you also need a dishwasher, washing machine or fridge line connected, we cover that on our appliance connections page.

Sink, Basin & Vanity Installation FAQs

  • It depends on the job. A like-for-like swap where the supply and waste are already in the right place is a small, quick job we can usually quote over the phone. A new fit-out where supply or waste lines need moving, or a full vanity unit goes in, takes longer and we will price that work before we start. Either way you get an upfront quote with no surprises on the day.

  • Yes. We work alongside the carpenter and tiler so the plumbing goes in at the right stage of a kitchen or bathroom renovation. We connect hot and cold supply, fit drains, traps and wastes, and seal the sink or basin to the bench or wall so it does not move or weep.

  • Yes, and they are some of the most common jobs we do. If your old sink or basin is cracked, stained or just dated, and the supply and waste are already in the right spot, we can swap in the new one, reconnect the supply, refit the trap and waste, and reseal it, usually in a single visit.

  • For a connection that does not weep and a bowl that drains cleanly, yes. A trap set up at the wrong fall, a waste that is not seated right, or a seal that lets go is a common cause of water tracking into the cabinet below. A licensed plumber sets it up properly so it is done once and stays put.

  • A like-for-like swap is usually a single visit and done in a couple of hours. New installs that involve moving supply or waste lines, or fitting a full vanity unit, take longer. We confirm the expected timeframe when we quote the job.
