    Adding a second sink behind wall with sink?
    Hello Everyone.

    I have a bathroom sink behind my garage and I want to add a sink in the garage. Can anyone tell me what I will need to do this. I am very handy guy but I have never done plumbing before so I want to ask the pros. It's just going to be a basic stainless steel sink installed and it will be on exactly on the other side of the wall where the bathroom sink is. If anyone can offer there advice and expertise, that would be great. Thank you.

    Cheers.

    Hey Ziggy,
    We can help but we neeed to know the material your drainage pipe are. Plastic or cast iron. Alsothe wall will have to be opened up and the drainage from the other lavatory exposed. Before We can help we have to know the fitting that's on the stack now and whether the lavatory is armed out or connected directly to the stack. We need this information before we can help. Regards, Tom

    Let me know for sure. The fitting that you replace on the stack will be different from a fitting if they were back to back from the stack. Regards, tom
