I have a single vanity we're converting into a double. The full size is only 60" with the two drains being about 30" apart, so shorter than 3 feet. The plumbing is installed on an outside wall - so it's load bearing. I don't think I can run a T behind the wall through the studs for this. So instead, I am planning on using a single P-trap on the left side near the drain while drilling a hole through the back of the vanity to go to the right drain as well as install T shark bites to get water to the right side.
The drain location in the wall is about 4 inches too low for our vanity. What would be the best method to raise it 3-4" inches? Here were some ways I thinking I could do it but wanted your advice.
1. I cut out the drain knuckle behind the wall and install a new piece moving it up 3-4 inches. No cuts made to vanity shelves. Would this be okay?
2.Use two 90 degree elbows to give me the extra height I need for p-trap clearance. One cut to back of vanity shelf for current drain height. (updated below)
3. Least preferable, leave drain at current height and cut a channel through the shelve for the P-trap.
Appreciate the help!
