Bathroom - Sinks & Lavatories

Bookmark and Share
Sinks or lavatories, too, come in assorted sizes, shapes, and colors; in materials such as porcelain, fiberglass, acrylic, concrete, stainless steel, copper, and natural stone - including marble, granite, limestone, sandstone, and onyx. Even treated exotic wood basin-type and clear or frosted glass sinks are available.

Pre-made vanities come complete, with a sink, countertop, and required fixtures.

The various sink options include:

  • Prefab vanities – ranging from a simple one-sink design; priced around $350 to more elaborate multi-sink designs for $1500 on up.
  • Pedestal sinks – usually one piece fixtures on a stem or foot that rises from the floor up to a graceful bowl with fixtures. Commonly constructed from porcelain, but other options include glass features, stainless steel or other metals, and natural stone. Prices start from under $400 to $2000 and up.
  • Wall-mount and console sinks – made from a variety of materials; including copper, natural stone, porcelain, and stainless steel. They come in many design options, with accessories such as cabinetry, towel cubicles, and mirrors. Prices range from under $600 to over $6000.

  • Vessel sinks – in a nearly endless variety of styles, types, shapes, and colors from which to select; including lavish ceramic with colorful flowers and elegant decorations. For the most part, a vessel sink is simply a basin or bowl that rests under a faucet. Some may come attached with a drain; others are completely portable and may be picked up, moved, and emptied. Prices range from under $200 to well over $1000.
  • Self-rimming sinks – made to sit into an opening on a countertop using a sealant; requiring no clamping or other type attachment device. These, too, are available in a variety of shapes and colors; with wide price margins depending upon quality, material, and style.
  • Undermount sinks – installed into a substrate countertop, with the final counter surface installed right up to the rim of the sink. Available in endless shapes, styles, colors, and materials – including stainless steel, copper, nickel, and glass; prices range in the $100s to $1000s.

With the seemingly endless selection of bathroom sinks and lavatories from which to select, the possibilities for your bathroom design are nearly infinite.
