DRILLING FOR TAPS IN THE WORKTOP
Mark the position of the taps on the worktop using the manufacturers recommended
guidelines
(see fig 1).
Drill through the work surface with a hole saw using the marked positions
(see fig 2).
Sand all raw edges (both the 3mm surface material and the substrate) applying a slight
radius and a smooth finish to the edge.
Apply good quality silicone sealant to all sanded surfaces and smooth out to ensure a full
even coverage including the tap hole
(see fig 3)
.
Fit the taps following the manufacturers instructions.

WASHBASIN
Choose the location of the tap and mark the centre point of the hole. Drill from the top
face ensuring you have space inside the cavity for the tap fittings.
Using a hole saw for cutting tap holes, cut through the Gelcast surface. If fitting a Utopia
tap cut a 35mm hole. If using any other tap please refer to the manufacturer’s fitting
guidelines
(see fig 4)

35mm hole from the top which will accommodate your tap. Insert the nylon sleeve.
