Faucets:

Assemble the faucet assembly. Each vessel sink faucet is different, so follow the manufacturer's

instructions to properly assemble the faucet without the flex hoses attached.

Drill a hole for the faucet. Depending on your vanity countertop's material, you may be able to

drill a hole for the faucet yourself.

Test the location of the faucet in relation to the vessel sink to be sure that the water will flow

properly into the sink bowl.

Mark the hole's location on the countertop with pencil or chalk. The hole needs to be large enough

to fit the vessel sink faucet, but small enough not to be noticeable once the faucet is installed. See

the faucetThe first step is to attach the supply lines to the faucet. As previously mentioned most

countertop / deck mounted vessel faucets are a single hole design, with the water supply lines

attaching inside the faucet body. Your faucet may have these connectors right on the bottom of the

faucet, or in some modular pole type designs, you may have to take the faucet body apart to reach

the internal supply line connectors. Shown below on the left is the connection of the steel braided

water supply lines to the body of the faucet, make sure these supply lines are good and tight, often

hand tightening is enough. Shown below on the right is the faucet supply lines run though the

mounting hole in the countertop as well as the faucet base plate which contains a rubber gasket

underneath to create a water tight seal. Also shown is the mounting screw and plate which will be

attached to the faucet from underneath the countertop.

Now, go underneath the countertop and attach the faucet mounting screw and bracket, ensuring the bracket does not interfere with the water supply lines. After the screw is fully tightened and the bracket is as close to the bottom of the countertop as possible you can connect the water supply lines to the threaded connector on the water supply pipes. Note that in the photo on the right, we had to install supply line extensions because the supply lines were not long enough to reach the water supply pipes.

Step 5: Vessel Sink Installation After the faucet has been installed, you can now proceed to the actual installation of the vessel sink. As previously mentioned in this how to guide, there are two different ways to mount a vessel sink. The first is the "above counter method" which is the most popular method and can be used for any shape or style of vessel sink.
