Removing my bathroom sink faucet pt. 1. Removing the sink pedestal base. Just take an xacto knife and score along all the caulk lines to remove as much caulk as you can before removing the pedestal base. Then you want to loosen the screws of the top sink so that when you move out the pedestal base the sink top will be able to lift itself to allow wiggle room for the pedestal base to be removed.

Was there something to unfasten or loosen in the back? What did you use to knock the bottom out-your hand, a tool?
Sorry for the delay! Yes! There were bolts in the back that was holding the top of the pedestal to the wall, we actually just loosened those first, that way when I pulled out the base, the top part of the sink could move and allow the base to be pulled out without the top or base breaking.
Then ones we loosened the bolts, you can sort of lift the top sink part up, while you slide the base out. Also we took an xacto knife to remove the caulk holding the base to the floor. So make sure you score/remove the caulk before trying to get the base out
So helpful believe it or not. I didn’t realize that bottom piece can be removed like that. I have the same one in my bathroom. Thanks ❤
You’re welcome! Just make sure to loosen the bolts on the top sink part first so that the sink can shift while you pull out the base. If you have a helper, they can lift the sink up while you pull the base out.
The problem that I have is I have trouble loosen thebolts on the top sink. I am wondering if there is some special tools to do that.
Damn I love the reassurance from the dog!
That it! I'm demanding an assistant for my DIY projects too. Yall made that look way easier working together. 🤣😂🤣😂
Lol I love this. 100% agree
Thank you , I was trying to figure out how to remove the sink till found your post!!! 🙏🏻
Yay I’m glad! Just make sure you loosen the bolts on the top part of the sink and it’s easier to have someone lift up the top sink while someone slides out the base. Just take an xacto knife to score the caulked lines connecting the pedestal base to the floor and also the caulk line connecting the pedestal to the top sink part
Congrats
☺️
Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much!
Glad it could help! Just make sure you loosen the bolts to the top part (the sink) and if you have someone helping you push the sink up while you pull the pedestal out then that would be very helpful
I personally love that your animal is involved , they are so nosy and always ready to learn idk why everyone else is so bothered ..
Aww love that thank you. I agree. I’m trying to teach her ‘Leave It’ and situations like this are the best to teach her so that I can make sure I keep her by me, yet keep her safe :)
Tho how, I have the same one and today need to replace it. Kids used carpet cleaner to wash the sink and the faucet is now spotted lol.
Same exact situation with the cover. Did you re caulk?
I’m sorry I just saw this 😅 I hope you got it sorted out 🤞🏼 Kids man, they’re expensive lol
It’s the little things like removing a pedestal base that makes me so excited 🤣 I think it’s just the satisfaction of trying new things that make me happy.
I’m currently working on replacing my builder grade faucet in our half bathroom. This is my first time doing so. Honestly, I have no idea what I’m doing half the time. I’m pausing a lot to look up RUclips videos and Google instructions. This is harder than I thought it would be, but I know I’ll get it down. But I’m always up for volunteers. 😂
Got the pedestal base removed and now I can finally get my hands in there to remove the drain thing (?🫣) and figure out what I need to do to remove the faucet 🤣
Captions: I’m like scared I’m going to break it. Maybe I shouldn’t remove this…. Do you think I can do it without it? *dog kisses* Oh thank you… *grunts* *struggles* *sigh laughing* That scared me. Oh I did it! Oh my gosh! Yay!! I did it!

Good job! It’s always good to be proud about the little things
Guuuurl. I need the motivation. Bought a new vanity set 2 years ago. I've been putting it off because I'm afraid to make a mess of it. Or flood the bathroom trying to replace it. But the house is falling apart bit by bit. A girl's gotta fix things up. I'd love a lovely furry assistant to help me out as well. ❤🕯
@@Grace_oGD I’m afraid my pedestal sink will flood my house because it had been leaking from the drain sometimes so I need to get a new sink
@@ElevatorWasher5000 HECTIC. I feel you. How's about you get a new sink when you can afford it and we both get our sinks replaced together...
Someone deserves a cookie!😉
She got her favorite frozen peanut butter treat 🥰
Doggie said remove it ya gots diz mama 😂
Lol she is the cutest doggie 🥰
Hi , it's me , the plumber you called to fix the sink you broke, I'm at the front door
Lol luckily it didn’t break 🤣
I love your apprentice❤🦮
She is the best ❤️
U r lucky. Ur pedestal is not an inner stand.
I just had to loosen the bolts holding the top part that way we could sort of lift the top sink as we slid out the bottom base
Sorry darlin
You wouldn't have been able to even budge my sink base. Builder set with silicone that cured over years.
Were you able to cut your silicone caulk? That’s what I did with mine, but it just took a couple of pills 😂
@@ourfamilymaison Yes. They siliconed the rear of the sink to tile wall and also the base. Was a real pain to cut through. It wasn't just silicone around the perimeter which would have been easy to score through. At least I got both pieces free in the end.
Ah that’s good! Some things just are harder to budge for sure ha
Where is part 2
That’s a great question. There is none. Not sure why I put part 1 in the title 😂
I don't have the guts to remove mine. My sink would drop almost instantly
You can do it!!
I don't wanna do it because it seems like a hassle to rip it out just to change the drain and then put it back in when I don't even like it and would rather have a vanity with closed storage.
Bro why u taking so long if u moved the puppy it very dangerous might fall and hitting stuff everywhere
😶
Get your puppy out of there. Dangerous for you and the dog
she’s just giving me loves and support ❤️
Stop trying to make a DIY video with your pet all over the video.

Already finished this project last year. It wasn’t too bad once I figured it out lol
