Can you install a farmhouse sink in an existing countertop?

• <div><p>Yes, you can install a farmhouse sink on an existing countertop—but there are some caveats. You’ll need to precisely measure. It’s best to choose a sink that’s the same dimensions as your existing sink, since your contractor won’t have to cut the countertop. Otherwise, pay close attention to the depth of your counter (the front to back measurement). You don’t want to install something that’s so big it sticks out beyond your countertop and cabinetry.</p></div>

Why does a dishwasher have to drain through the sink plumbing?

I can't say enough good things about this company. They promptly and fully repaired all of the detrimental and pointless "work" done by Peak Heating and got my boiler running efficiently before winter. The service reps were reliable, professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend their work.
