How to Install a Marble Pedestal Washbasin — Complete Step-by-Step Guide India

A marble pedestal washbasin from Oceania arrives fully finished, ready for installation. Installation requires a licensed plumber for water supply and drain connections. This guide helps you prepare your bathroom and understand the installation process before your Oceania marble sink arrives.

Before Installation — What You Need to Prepare

  • Floor assessment: Marble pedestal washbasins weigh 40-80 kg. Verify your floor can support this (all standard Indian concrete floors can)

  • Floor drain location: Your bathroom floor drain / waste pipe must be positioned within 30-40 cm of where the pedestal base will sit

  • Water supply: Hot and cold water supply lines should ideally exit from the wall or floor near the pedestal base

  • Space: Minimum 60 cm clearance on sides, 80 cm in front for comfortable use

  • Plumber: Book a licensed plumber in advance for connection day

Tools Required for Installation

  • Silicon sealant (neutral cure, clear or white)

  • P-trap waste fitting (standard 32mm or 40mm)

  • Flexible water supply hoses (hot and cold, 30-50 cm)

  • Adjustable spanner / wrench

  • Spirit level

  • Teflon tape (plumber’s tape)

  • Faucet / tap (sold separately — standard single-hole or deck-mounted)

Step-by-Step Installation Process

  • Step 1: Unpack carefully. Remove all packaging material. Inspect for any transit damage (report within 48 hours to oceaniawashbasin@gmail.com if any).

  • Step 2: Position the pedestal base in the desired location. Mark the floor position with chalk.

  • Step 3: Install the faucet/tap into the pre-drilled faucet hole before mounting. Use plumber’s tape on threads.

  • Step 4: Install the waste fitting (P-trap / bottle trap) into the pre-drilled drain hole.

  • Step 5: Position the pedestal column, feed the drain pipe and water supply hoses through the pedestal centre.

  • Step 6: Place the washbasin on the pedestal. Use spirit level to ensure it is level. Apply silicon sealant to the joint between basin and pedestal.

  • Step 7: Connect water supply hoses to hot and cold water valves. Connect waste pipe to floor drain.

  • Step 8: Turn on water supply, test for leaks. Allow silicon to cure 24 hours before use.
