Different Types of Bathroom Sinks

Your bathroom sink is an essential part of your home. It might not be very exciting, expensive or particularly stylish, but it must be functional and fit in with ease. Of course, aesthetics are important too. You don’t want an ugly bathroom suite. That is why there’s a whole industry dedicated to producing a wide range of designs and styles for you to find your perfect sink.

Pedestal

This is also referred to as a free-standing sink. Its benefits include needing little space, looking neat and contemporary and being a highly functional choice.

Free-Standing Vanity

A vanity is a combination of a vanity cupboard and a pedestal sink. The benefit with this is that you have space for your everyday toiletry items whereas you wouldn’t with just a pedestal sink. They still look great, are on trend right now, still offer space-saving benefits and are a good choice for a contemporary bathroom. Why not combine with Marble Tiles for a more sophisticated look?

Wall Mounted

For a super contemporary look, a wall mounted sink looks incredibly stylish and modern, as well as saving a lot of space for smaller bathrooms. They are slightly more fragile and won’t live up to any force or impacts, but for an elegant grown-up bathroom design, this could be the choice for you.

Under-Mount

These are a more unusual style of sink and look amazing and classy at the same time. They usually suit larger bathrooms as quite a lot of space is needed to install one. You will also need a countertop to fit the sink underneath and the countertop must be a hard material like granite or marble, making this choice a pricey one.
