Undermount and drop-in
Drop-in sinks rest on the counter with a rim and suit laminate tops. Undermount sinks hang beneath stone or solid surface counters and are held by clips and adhesive. The counter fabricator cuts the opening; we set the sink, connect the drain and faucet, and make sure the strainers are sealed. Deeper sinks may need the trap lowered, which sometimes means lowering the wall connection.
Disposals and septic
- Garbage disposals need a dedicated outlet or a switched circuit under the sink.
- A disposal increases solids in the line; good habits matter.
- Homes on septic systems around King and East Gwillimbury should check before adding one, since extra solids burden the tank.
- Batch-feed models are an option where a wall switch is not practical.
Dishwasher hookup
A dishwasher drain must loop up high under the counter or route through an air gap fitting on the way to the sink tailpiece or disposal. That prevents dirty sink water from siphoning back into clean dishes. The supply usually comes from a tee on the hot stop under the sink. We fit a dedicated valve for the dishwasher so you can shut it off without losing the faucet.
- Set the sink and strainers.
- Install the faucet and supplies.
- Assemble the trap, disposal and dishwasher drain.
