A Quick Guide to Bathroom Sink Styles



Bathroom sinks may have just one function but they come in many styles. If you’re doing a custom bathroom remodel, the sink is one of the many things you have to decide on. Which should you choose? It depends on your needs and preferences, but understanding what options are available will give you an idea of what could work best for you.

The bathroom sink styles you may consider include:

  • Undermount Sinks. Undermount sinks are attached to vanity tops or counters from below the surface. They don’t have a rim, making it easy to wipe off water from the counter directly into the sink, as well as allowing for more countertop space.

  • Drop-In Sinks. Easy to install because they feature a rim that rests on the counter surface, drop-in sinks are favored by do-it-yourselfers. They come in porcelain, stainless steel or granite, letting you choose what will complement your bathroom the best.

  • Wall-Mounted Sinks. Clean in appearance, wall-mounted sinks offer a clutter-free look that harnesses both utilitarian and modern styles. They are perfect for small bathrooms as they free up floor space that can be used for storage.

  • Vessel Sinks. One of the more uncommon sink styles, vessel sinks are installed above counters and can come in various materials like porcelain, stone, glass and even copper, letting you use the sink as a focal point in your bathroom. They are popular in powder rooms but will work well in any type of bathroom.

  • Pedestal Sinks. Great for powder rooms or smaller bathrooms, pedestal sinks feature large bowls with no counter space. Still, they can be made large enough for deck space to hold hand soap and small grooming essentials. Pedestal sinks are commonly paired with freestanding soaking tubs.
