How Many Hours Should it Take to Replace a Kitchen Sink?
-
Installation Takes About Half a Day
-
If you replace your existing sink with a new one, you can easily complete the project in a morning or afternoon. It's usually not too complicated. Experienced do-it-yourselfers may only need an hour or two.
-
Potential Slowdowns
-
Some factors that might slow you down are having rotten countertops to reinforce or replace, finding the new sink is the wrong size for the existing hole, or discovering the old faucet fixture doesn't fit the new sink. Before using a new under-mount sink, there also will be adhesive curing time.
Bottom Line
-
If you plan your project to assure the sink, counter cutout and plumbing fixtures are size compatible, replacing a kitchen sink can be a quick and easy update.
