Hello,

I have a question. We currently have two sinks side by side in the large bathroom in our house. Since we don't need one of the sinks, I would very much like to remove it.

The sink was installed there five years ago by a professional company.

Now my concern: If I remove the sink, there will at least be one or two holes in the tile (after all, the sink has to be attached somehow).

Unfortunately, we don't have a new matching tile to replace it... Does anyone know how such sinks are mounted? Will there only be a few small holes in the tile or, for example, is it also discolored?

If a major damage is to be expected (tile behind completely full of holes, tile heavily discolored, etc.), I would rather leave the sink attached. It bothers us, but it still looks better than a completely damaged tile... For one or two small holes, on the other hand, I could put something over it...

I am very much looking forward to an answer.





Attached are two pictures.

Thanks a lot to you all ;)

I cannot say anything about the hole size of the brackets - but wouldn't the holes from the two water inlets and the siphon bother you much more?

So, it's not just one or two small holes, there are two, if not even four pieces, and at least M8, rather M10 thread pins... Discoloration I don't know

Thank you very much. That already helps me. Then I will probably leave the [Waschbecken] in place.

Best regards ;)

Behind it looks like this:



The threaded rods can be unscrewed and the holes can be filled. However, this becomes more difficult with the drain and the angle valves.

That's true. However, we would probably have placed a cabinet there.



Great, thank you very much. It actually looks good... So I can't see any discoloration of the tiles. That helped me ;)
