Cost for sink installation

4 years ago

I think I'm going to replace my old porcelain sink with a top-mount stainless sink. The current sink is a two-bowl 50/50 and I'm going to go with a single bowl or a 60/40. What should I expect to pay to have this done? I'm in the Phoenix area.

    $400-$900. Depends on it it includes a disposal, DW, and faucet install too. Which you will need all new as well. No putting back the grody old ones.

    It isnt hard to DIY.

    Thanks for responding. I need a new disposal, DW and faucet? I planned to get a new faucet but planned to keep the others.

    Unlike Florida, you or your contractor won't need a license or permit to replace a sink in Phoenix.


    "I need a new disposal, DW and faucet?"


    No, not necessiarily. Rarely a faucet that has been leaking has had the nut rust welded on and can't be removed without a grinder.


    Rates for sink replacement in Florida are double Verbo's high end, sink and plumbing included. I can still wrestle a cast iron sink out, but I've got an employee undergoing double hernia surgery Monday for doing same. He'll be out for 6 weeks.

    You absolutely require a new disposal. They don’t survive being moved around. And it costs more to replace as a stand alone project than as part of the ensemble. And plan to replace the shut off valves under the sink. They never get used, and always leak. Replacement is a must. If you want to reuse your old DW, get new hoses, and check the electrical cord while you are at it. That’s usually the source of the problems that occur.


    You should also examine how well the current counters work and look. No point in replacing the sink and the rest, and then wanting new counters a couple of years down the line. And there’s no point in replacing new counters on gross falling apart 1973 cabinets.


    Every decision has to be examined as part of a whole when you can’t DIY the job. You dont want to waste money twice paying for expensive labor.


    This seriously is easy to DIY. You need to start somewhere when you are a homeowner. Ot you throw away tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, over time as a homeowner. Get busy watching youtube and buy some tools.

    Joseph Corlett, Thanks. I don't really want to replace a perfect disposal if not necessary. And I'm replacing a top mount sink with a top mount, so if I decide to change the counters, I can use the same sink. I'll probably get a sink that will work as drop-in and/or undermount.
