Many residential real estate owners install bathroom sinks in a rather crude way. And this often lead to problems.

What is the common approach?

In many bathrooms, you will find that the sink for the bathroom is held in place by two iron rods or two half inch hollow galvanized pipes buried into the bathroom wall where the sink is installed. What this means is that the sink can slide horizontal, fall to the ground and break.

A friend had an experience where a guest was taking his bath in his house and slipped. In a last minute attempt to stay standing, he grabbed hold of the sink for support. As he did, the sink came off the hollow pipes that held the ceramic sink in place. And he went down with it.

The ceramic sink broke as you would expect and the guest got injured. Not a pleasant experience, I tell you.

So, when you install the sink for your bathroom, don't just hang it there. Ensure the sink hangers or place holders have a hook at both ends to ensure the sink does not slide outwards . . . on its own or when someone stumbles against it.

One last thing.

Should stainless steel sinks be used in the bathroom?

Ideally, stainless steel sinks are great for use as kitchen sinks. Ceramic sinks fit more in the bathroom because they match the colour and make of the toilet accessories. And hence, combine to give and appealing environment to bath.

Make the right choice and install your sinks right. You will be just fine.
