Which Sink is The Right One For You?

If you are in the middle of a bathroom remodel, or you want to update your kitchen, installing a new sink might be just what you need to complete the transformation.

That said, finding the right bathroom or kitchen sinkmay be easier said than done. In today’s marketplace, there are countless sink options available for you to choose from, from different styles and shapes to various materials they can be made out of.

To avoid becoming overwhelmed and stressed out by your sink shopping, make sure that you do your research, understand the cost of your new sink, and consult with a plumbing store in your area about your kitchen and bathroom sink options.

Research is Always Important

Anytime you make a purchase for your home, from something as simple as an area rug to something as vital as your plumbing, research is a definite must.

When it comes to buying a new sink, researching all of the different types of sinks that are out there can help you find one that ties up the look of your bathroom or kitchen perfectly.

Some popular kitchen sink options include farmhouse sinks, bar sinks, corner sinks, under-mounted sinks, drainboard sinks and more! They can be made from porcelain, stainless steel, granite composite, and other materials.

Bathroom sinks can also come in an array of materials, though porcelain is the most common. Some popular styles of bathroom sinks include drop-in sinks, pedestal sinks, console sinks, under-mounted sinks, wall mounted sinks and more.

Can You Afford The Cost of a New Sink?

Once you’ve done some research and discovered what kind of sink you are interested in installing, it’s time to take a look at the costs of those different sink types.

Depending on the style of sink and the material it’s made of, purchasing and installing your sink can cost anywhere from $200 to almost $600. For this reason, you may need to ask yourself how much of your renovation budget you are willing to dedicate to your sink.

Is Your Dream Sink Available at Your Local Plumbing Store?

Finally, it is essential that you check in with your local plumbing store to ask about availability and installation.

If the plumbing store you contact doesn’t have the sink you are looking for in stock, they can do one of two things:

1. They can contact another warehouse and have it shipped to them. This option may add an extra cost to the overall price of the sink and installation.
2. They can help you locate another plumbing store that does carry the sink you want and can install it for you.
