Sink just fell through our counter - bottom mounted. We are looking for something to brace the sink and hold it up so I can remove the garbage disposal and start to work with the sink. The counter top is quartz, and it looks like the sink was not connected by any brackets - it was held on only by the sealant. This is our first home, and we’re pretty inexperienced.
How do I go about repairing this and what do I need to go buy? Thanks in advance.
I have some plumbers putty, but no silicone sealant.
Is this a new house? It sounds like they forgot to install the brackets. I cant imagine any sealant would be able to hold a sink without some assistance. I believe you will want to remove all the old sealant, clean it up, add new sealant, put the sink back...and attach brackets. Probably some that attach to the counter with epoxy would be best.
