Fitting a bathroom sink on top of a cupboard

Question

I've seen people on social media mounting sinks on old cupboards instead of using a vanity unit. I'd like to do the same but don't have the skills. Are there any bathroom specialists who do this type of fitting?

Sorin · Answer

it depends on how solid that cabinet is, any kind of sink model can be installed

Hi,
Yes this can be done with some due care 
Taking into consideration the hot & cold pipework and waste to be connected inside cupboard.
The to surface should have a waterproof top especially if the basin is smaller than the cupboard top surface. 
The to surface is rigid enough to accommodate the basin.

I have fitted many of thes basins, some, I have had to cut the counter top to fit odd shaped alcoves.

Any reputable plumber would be able to do this for you. Just need to make sure that the wood has been waterproofed. No reason why it wouldn’t work. I’ve installed a stone sink on a railway sleeper. Railway sleepers have been treated. Good Luck
