Title: Floor-plumbed bathroom pedestal sink
Post by Userid27 on Aug 7^th, 2014, 10:11pm

Any recommendations for a bathroom sink that is plumbed through the floor , not the wall? We are trying to replace an old pedestal sink that has the plumbing coming up through the floor. Attempts to adapt a more common, wall-plumbed sink have been very frustrating and unsuccessful. Any suggestions? The old sink is gone so we are looking for a replacement. This is my first time using this site so feel free to set me straight if I am not making myself clear. Thank you for your help.

Hi and welcome.

Not really clear as all basins can be plumb from the floor or wall.

Normally you can tuck the pipes in or behind the pedistal to conceal them to a degree.

I cannot find a sink (not a vanity, just a pedestal sink) that is plumbed from the floor - can you suggest a site for me to check? thanks for your reply.

What sort of sink are you looking for? Nearly all pedestal sinks can be plumbed through the floor.

Assuming the op is in Main Usa it may be different over there WS
