hi all,
we've just moved house and found out the waste disposal in the kitchen sink is broken. as its not something we'd ever really use anyway I want to just take it out and replace it with a standard drain. the trouble is, it looks like the opening in the sink may have been make bigger to accommodate the insinkerator, approximately 5 inches(don't have the exact size at the moment as im at work, will measure it later & edit post). I cant really replace the entire sink as I cant find one the same size and shape and the work tops are granite so I cant alter the them to take a different size sink. I cant seen to find any sink strainer basket in any size other than the standard 3.5 inch size.
does anyone know if theres some sort of reducing adaptor in existence that could be used so it will take a standard sink strainer? or suggest an alternative solution ? really don't want to put another disposal unit in.
thanks in advance for any advice
