Home > Information > Installation Guide
BEFORE YOU BEGIN PLEASE READ THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
  • Consult professional help if you are unfamiliar with removing/installing bathroom cabinetry and working with associated plumbing hardware and tools.
  • Installing a vanity cabinet and vanity top will require more than one person to do the job.

Vanity Top Installation Instructions

  1. To make installation easier, attach faucets prior to positioning the top onto the cabinet. Follow the faucet manufacturer’s instructions. When handling tools and other sharp, heavy objects during installation, use a protective covering to avoid scratching and damaging the top.
  2. Apply a uniform bead of clear silicone sealant around the inside perimeter of the vanity cabinet prior to positioning the top into place. Avoid applying too much sealant where it will make contact with the cabinet’s finish. The sealant and the downward pressure of the faucet and drain assembly will secure the top to the cabinet.
  3. Carefully position the vanity top onto the cabinet. Have a soft cloth ready to wipe off any excess sealant should it compress over the edge and onto the finished sides. Attach applicable side splashes with clear silicone sealant.
  4. Use clear silicone sealant on drain openings. Read all sealant manufacturer’s instructions and warnings, some sealants like Plumber’s Putty ®, are not recommended for use with cultured marble product.
About Our Vanity Tops: Our cultured vanity tops are listed with Underwriter’s Laboratory and meet the American National Standards Institute (ANSI Z124.3) national plumbing standards. There are no overflows in our bowls because they are not required, they are un-sanitary (hospitals do not use overflows in their lavatories), Un-sightly, Un-gelcoated, and Un-necessary.

Care and Cleaning Instructions

USE: A soft sponge or cloth to absorb standing water and to wipe up water spots. To maintain and protect the gloss finish we suggest periodically applying a cleaner and restorer product like Gel Gloss®.
DO NOT USE: harsh, abrasive cleaners or brushes as these will scratch and dull the top. Avoid direct heat sources, and keep paint thinners, mineral spirits etc., away as they will damage the gel-coat.
