Los Angeles homeowners search “sink AND Los Angeles” every day, hoping to uncover real numbers and reliable pros. At CountBricks, we turn that search into action by combining AI-powered estimating, on-site voice capture, and live material pricing for an experience no spreadsheet can match.
Los Angeles pricing is shaped by more than square footage. CountBricks’ database tracks thousands of hyper-local variables so our residential contractors can quote confidently the first time.
• Material grade: From builder-grade stainless to hand-forged fireclay, we pull real-time distributor pricing the moment you speak.
• Installation complexity: Drop-in replacements are fast; converting to an under-mount or farmhouse style may require countertop cutting and cabinet reinforcement.
• Plumbing code updates: California’s Title 24 and L.A. City Green Building Code can require additional shut-off valves, air gaps, or lead-free components.
• Neighborhood access: Traffic patterns, parking permits, and historic district rules affect labor hours—our AI accounts for every mile and minute.
According to CountBricks projects logged from January through May 2025:
• Basic drop-in replacement: $780 – $1,150, all-inclusive
• Mid-level under-mount with quartz cut-out: $1,600 – $2,250
• Apron-front farmhouse with cabinet rebuild: $2,900 – $4,100
These figures include demolition, disposal, parts, and labor—generated in seconds by CountBricks.com/services.
1. Voice capture: On site, your foreperson describes scope—“replace 33-inch sink, move dishwasher drain 6 inches.”
2. Instant AI breakdown: CountBricks identifies tasks, labor hours, permit fees, and pulls live sink SKUs from partnered suppliers.
3. Blueprint takeoff (optional): Upload existing cabinet plans for automated rim cut-out measurements.
4. Client-ready proposal: A branded PDF with line items, mark-ups, and payment schedule is ready before you’ve left the driveway.
California plumbing work under $500 in material valuation often qualifies for an Express Permit, but anything involving drain line relocation or structural cabinet changes requires plan check. CountBricks flags these triggers automatically and adds:
• Permit filing fee estimates
• Expected inspection dates synced to your project calendar
• City of Los Angeles forms pre-filled with project data
• Stainless steel 18-gauge: Durable, earthquake-resilient, and budget-friendly for rental flips.
• Granite composite: Resists scratches from sand tracked in after a beach day; mid-range price.
• Fireclay farmhouse: Suits Spanish Revival homes in Silver Lake; expect reinforcement costs.
CountBricks’ materials engine shows lead times and carbon impact so clients can align selections with sustainability goals.
• Accuracy: Less than 3 % average variance between estimate and final invoice across 2,100 recent L.A. sink jobs.
• Speed: 70 % of CountBricks users generate quotes in under eight minutes.
• Cash flow: Integrated invoicing pushes payment links to homeowners the moment the inspector signs off.
A two-bedroom unit required converting a dated dual-basin to a single under-mount quartz sink. Voice capture plus blueprint takeoff delivered a $1,845 estimate in four minutes. Actual closing cost: $1,872—only a $27 delta. Client approved extra garbage disposal within the same visit, and the contractor invoiced through CountBricks.com/portfolio before leaving the site.
• Confirm water pressure: Neighborhoods like Hollywood Hills often need pressure-reducing valves.
• Schedule around water shutoff windows published by LADWP.
• Use earthquake putty on supply lines to reduce micro-leaks after seismic events.
• Offer low-flow aerators to help clients with LADWP rebate programs.
• Photograph trap assemblies for CountBricks AI so replacement gaskets are auto-added to the cart.

Installing a sink often sparks larger remodel conversations—especially in Los Angeles where open-concept living reigns. CountBricks positions contractors to upsell responsibly by surfacing data-driven suggestions while you quote.
• Faucet and filter packages: Our AI flags compatibility between sink gauge, counter material, and touchless fixtures, displaying a one-click bundle price.
• Lighting updates: Since plumbing work already opens the wall cavity, CountBricks calculates marginal labor to add under-cabinet LEDs, boosting ticket size with minimal disruption.
• Water-saving incentives: The platform cross-references zip code with LADWP rebate schedules, allowing you to propose high-efficiency dishwashers during the same visit.
