Want to know how to fix a sink or basin to a wall? If you are adding a new sink to a bathroom, or replacing an old one, you’re probably wondering how you can attach the sink to the wall without bolts. The good news is that it is possible to attach a pedestal sink or basin to a bathroom wall without needing any drills or bolts to support the structure. All you need is Power Grab ‘n’ Bond, the world’s strongest construction adhesive for heavy-duty vertical bonding projects such as mounting a sink to a wall.
Securing a sink to a wall
A pedestal sink is a great choice for any bathroom. It reduces the amount of space taken up by the sink as it doesn’t have a vanity. Free-standing sinks may lack storage space, but they also take up less space, giving the illusion of a more spacious bathroom.
So, how can you bond this type of sink to the wall?
First, you obviously need to make sure that the plumbing part of the installation process is complete. It is also advised to have a plumber make sure that everything lines up in terms of the placement of the sink bowl, the stand of the sink, the running water and pipes, etc. Once the plumbing side of it all is finished, you’re ready to mount the sink or basin to the wall.
Construction adhesive is needed to mount the sink bowl to the wall and the pedestal stand beneath. This can be tricky if you’ve never done a job like this before. However, if you use a powerful construction sealant like Power Grab ‘n’ Bond, your labour time will be cut by 50%. Power Grab ‘n’ Bond is a revolutionary construction adhesive that specialises in heavy-duty vertical bonding without the need for additional fixings. This makes it the ideal construction sealant for securing a sink.
Tips for securing a pedestal sink with Power Grab ‘n’ Bond
Power Grab ‘n’ Bond works best when all surfaces are clean and dry. So, it’s worth making sure that the sink and wall are clean and dry before applying the adhesive. If you are securing the sink to a stone wall that is quite porous, it’s advised to seal the stone with a PVA solution and clean and de-grease the area afterward with C-Tec Multisolve.
One of the most common challenges that people face when gluing a sink to a wall with adhesive is balancing the sink on the base and against the wall at the same time. Our advice is to take your time and apply Power Grab ‘n’ Bond to the back perimeter of the sink before pressing it against the wall. We also advise that you add Power Grab ‘n’ Bond adhesive to beneath the sink where it meets the base for extra adhesion power.
