Granite Vanity Top Installation Instructions

Step 1 -- Prepare Vanity for Installation

  • Clean top of vanity of all debris
  • Level the vanity front to back, side to side as well as diagonally
  • Shim vanity to keep level and secure vanity to the wall
  • As Granite is a heavy stone, be certain that the vanity
    can withstand the weight of the top


Step 2 -- Seal Bowl and Install Vanity Top

  • Install the faucets per the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Run a ¼” bead of clear acrylic caulk around the edge of
    the underneath side of the vanity top
  • Carefully turn over the vanity top and place on the
    cabinet base(s) and set in place. Keep in mind as to any
    overhang that you will have
  • Wipe away any excess caulk from the base and allow the
    caulk to set and dry (we recommend 24 hours to dry)

Step 3 -- Install Back and Side Splashes

  • Clean back of splash(es)
  • Apply urethane adhesive to the back side of the back
    splash and side splash
  • Place the splashes in place on the top of the vanity top
    against the back wall and/or side wall(s)
  • Run a 3/8” bead of clear caulk to the top edge of the
    splash where it meets the wall and smooth, making sure
    to fill any gaps due to a non-flat wall. Make sure not to
    force either splash to compensate for a bowed wall,
    again use your clear caulk to fill in those gaps
  • Run a 3/8” bead of clear caulk in the corner where the
    backsplash and side splash(es) meet
