    Cost to install pedestal sink vs. cabinet sink in new construction

    Thanks for the input Thanks for your help guys. It looks like the builder, the second time around on trying to justify the cost of this pedestal sink, may be in the actual ballpark on the plumbing costs and I won't make an issue of this one. It's really frustrating dealing with this jerk...

    Cost to install pedestal sink vs. cabinet sink in new construction

    The builder is telling me that it will cost him $375 more to pay the plumber to do this upgrade. Presumably if it costs more it will be based on increased time and materials. What I'm asking is if this change will take a plumber 15 minutes more or if it will be two hours more. If the former...
