Under Counter Basin

Under-Counter Basin Installation Process

1. Countertop Cut-Out

  • Ensure the countertop cut-out matches the basin size.
  • The cut-out should be slightly smaller than the basin rim so it doesn’t show from above.
  • Smooth and seal the edges of the cut-out (especially for stone/granite).

2. Mark & Prepare Mounting

  • Turn the countertop upside down or access from underneath.
  • Mark the centre of the cut-out and place the basin aligned properly.
  • Clean the edge of the cut-out and basin rim with a dry cloth.

3. Apply Sealant or Adhesive

  • Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant or epoxy adhesive around the basin rim.
  • Carefully place the basin against the underside of the countertop.

4. Fix the Basin

  • Clamp the basin to the countertop using temporary supports (wood blocks, basin clamps, or metal brackets).
  • Allow the adhesive/sealant to cure for 6–12 hours (follow product instructions).

5. Install Waste Outlet

  • Fix the waste coupling into the basin’s drain hole using PTFE tape.
  • Attach the bottle trap or P-trap and connect it to the wall drain.

6. Connect Water Supply

  • Install angle valves at water inlets.
  • Connect flexible hoses from valves to the faucet above the counter.

7. Finishing & Testing

  • Once cured, remove clamps and clean excess sealant.
  • Turn on the water supply.
  • Check all joints for leakage.
  • Clean the countertop and basin for a smooth finish.
