Okay now on to your simple guide for installing a pedestal sink. If you have never installed one, you might not realize that you need to support the sink similar to a normal vanity sink. It would be nice if all the pipes could come out of the bottom of the floor and up the pedestal to your faucets but this is just not the case. I think it would be really cool to have a pedestal sink in the middle of a huge master bathroom. But the only way to do this would be to have all the plumbing come up from the floor and you would probably need a special supports around the base to support the sink with out the help of a wall. Sorry for the off topic info, it just popped in my head and I thought it would be really neat.

Now all you have to do is place your pedestal sink where you want it. Then you will need to get a level which will be used so you can mark the spot on the floor and the spots on the wall where you will be mounting the sink. Next you will pull the pedestal sink away from the wall and floor markings and get your drill. You will now be drilling out the holes that you marked off in the above steps. After this you will install the faucet and drain assembly. Keep in mind you usually have to buy the valves and faucet separate.

Once that is all done you will be using your fasteners or screws to fix the top lavatory part to the wall. Then all you got to do is connect the trap and drain assembly pieces. Once you have the top bowl part tightly secured to the wall you will next drill holes in the floor and use your bolts to secure the pedestal base. Be careful when tightening the bolts. If you over do it, you can actually crack the porcelain. Thats pretty much it for a simple install guide. Keep in mind this is just a simple overview to give you an idea on how to install your pedestal sink.
