Did you know that there are no less than eight different types of sinks for your bathroom? You may have thought that choosing a bathroom sink for your new home or remodel project would be a simple task, but you have actually just embarked on one of the most difficult decisions you’ll have to make during the building process!

Take a look at the different types of bathroom sinks that Unlimited Contracting and other area contractors can install for you, and then give us a call when you’ve narrowed it down a little and we can help you make your all-important final decision.

Drop-in sinks are the most common type and are, therefore, easy to find and relatively inexpensive compared to other options. There are many varieties to choose from, and drop-in sinks are the easiest to install.

An under-mount sink is one that fits just under the countertop and gives the appearance of a solid piece. This type of sink works well with solid surfaces like stone, in situations where a perfect seal can be achieved.

For the ultimate minimalist bathroom , a wall-mounted sink that doesn’t have a boxy cabinet beneath it is perfect. If you have other storage in your bathroom, consider a “floating” sink mounted directly to the wall.

Pedestal sinks have maintained popularity throughout the last decade or more, and we don’t think they’re going anywhere! Their classic look can’t be denied, but they have a more practical purpose as well. A pedestal sink can disguise a waste pipe that can’t be recessed into the wall, so if you like the look of a wall-mounted sink and you don’t need the storage area, choose a pedestal sink!

Semi-recessed sinks are not all that common, mainly because a lot of contractors don’t know as much as they need to about them. Unlimited Contracting sees many benefits in semi-recessed sinks, especially when bathroom cabinets are shallow but the homeowner still wants a full-sized sink.

If you haven’t considered a washplane for a powder room or guest bathroom, it’s an interesting concept. These sinks don’t hold water, but they are perfect for an area where there isn’t much space or the customer wants a minimal design plan.

No, that’s not a bowl sitting on the counter, it’s your new sink! If you choose a vessel sink, that is. Vessel sinks are visually interesting and can be made from many different types of vessels, so you’ll have infinite possibilities if you choose this option.

These sinks are formed as part of the countertop itself. They are typically made of acrylic or porcelain, making them classic and easy to clean as well. They are quick to install because there are fewer parts, good if your bathroom remodel is a rush job.
