While you can leave some smaller decisions for later while you plan your kitchen remodel, you have to figure out others from the beginning. A simple rule of thumb is anything that affects the construction or installation of other elements needs to be decided early, and cosmetic decisions, like paint colors, can wait. An element of your kitchen that affects a surprising amount of other things is the sink. The side of the sink determines the measurements of the countertops, and the position and number of drains affect the plumbing. Our NH kitchen remodelers at All Work Construction can help you weigh your options and pick the best design for your new kitchen.
Our NH kitchen remodelers are comparing sink styles so you can have the beautiful and functional kitchen of your dreams.
Single and Double Basin
These styles are the most common because they are the simplest. A single-basin sink maximizes sink space while losing the least amount of countertop space. It is also easy to keep clean because of its simple design. However, if you have the space, a double-basin sink may be more practical. The basins can be the same size or different sizes, depending on your needs.
Farmhouse or Apron
The farmhouse or apron sink has become more prevalent in recent years as the “rustic chic” look has gained popularity. These large sinks have more advantages than just recreating the look of an old farmhouse kitchen. A farmhouse sink is big and deep, so you can easily wash large dishes like serving platters or roasting pans. They also make great baby or pet bathtubs if that’s part of your lifestyle.
Workstation Sinks
A relative newcomer to kitchen design, workstation sinks are multifunctional units. A workstation sink usually has two or even three basins with an integrated cutting board that slides across. This design allows for easy cleanup during meal prep. Some workstation sinks also accommodate draining racks, so you can dry your dishes right over the sink without getting water all over the counter.
