Removing Your OLD Lavatory

Figure 1

For new construction begin with INSTALLING YOUR NEW LAVATORY

1.Turn off the water supply. This is done by closing the two shut-off valves located under the lavatory.

If there are no shut-off valves leading to the lavatory, you must turn off the water at the main valve. This is usually located in the basement, garage, or near the foundation on the outside of the house. It may also be near the water meter.

Check to be sure the water is off by turning on the faucet where you are working until the water stops flowing.

If you have shut off the main valves in a two-story house or greater, you should open another faucet on the same or lower level. Water will then drain from the entire line. This will help avoid spills. Be sure and close the faucets before you turn on the main valve again.

2.Disconnect the drain pipes. Take off as many sections as possible between the lavatory and the wall or floor to facilitate removal.

Place a basin under work area to catch any water that may still be in the drain.

3.Before removing anything else, check to see how the lavatory is supported. If the pipes in the wall are providing support for the lavatory, use care in removing the faucet connections. The lavatory may fall once the faucet is disconnected, so have a helper hold it up while you work.

Look under the lavatory to see if there are lugs holding it to the countertop. Do not remove the lugs until you have first braced the lavatory against falling.

You may be able to shore it up with pieces of lumber from below. Or you can rig the support as shown in Figure 1. This sup- port consists of a strong wire or cord draped over a 2" x 4". Drop the wire through the drain and tie it to a block of wood. Twist the cord until the block of wood is snug against the tailpiece and provides a sure support for the lavatory.

You may then unscrew the lugs and lower the lavatory by carefully untwisting the block of wood.

Detach the faucet from the shut-off valves by unscrewing the compression nut at the joints between the valves and the water supply tubes.

If the connection is corroded you may need to cut off the nut with a hacksaw. If there is no nut or shut-off valve, use a tube cutter or hacksaw to separate the faucet from the water supply tubes.

Keep the basin and sponge handy for water that remains in the pipe and faucet.
