Vessel sinks are growing in popularity because of their simple style and luxurious look. These basins can be used in both traditional bathrooms as well as independent washrooms, since they are space conscious, providing a flexible option in any location in the home or office. With a wide selection of materials available, there is a style that will fit in with any existing decor.
Considerations for Installation
When installing a new basin, especially a free standing vessel style sink, there are some basics to consider. Most basins will need to have a faucet installed, and purchased, separately. To begin, the type of material being used should be considered before choosing the faucet. Some of the most popular materials for a vessel type sink are porcelain, glass, wood and stone. Porcelain is very traditional, and will typically coordinate well with any faucet, while stone vessels are available in a variety of styles and colors and may need a specific faucet to coordinate well.
Another consideration when using a vessel basin is the depth of the sink. Stone basins, for example, often have less depth than a traditional porcelain sink, while glass and wooden vessels can vary in depth. For a large family, a deeper basin can inhibit spills, while a shallow basin can provide an elegant area for simple everyday tasks.
Vanity Sinks With Vessel Basins
Vessel sinks come in several basic shapes, with circular and conic shapes being the most common. When installing a vessel with a vanity, there should be a snug fit with no movement once the sink basin has been installed. When installing as a free standing basin, the mount for the vessel should be snug to avoid possible breakage. When choosing a vessel, consider the vanity that is going into the room, or choose a vessel that fits the vanity. By carefully matching the two components, installation will be simpler and more time efficient.
There are a wide selection of vanities available, however, ensuring the right color, size and fit for any vessel basin. Both wooden and cast iron vanities are available, providing the option of a warm, traditional look or a sleeker, more modern decor. Often, vessel and vanity combinations will be sold as a unit, allowing for easy installation and coordination with existing decor.
Tools
For basic installation of a vessel basin and vanity, some common tools will be needed. A screwdriver that fits the hardware, plumbing supplies and a hammer will be needed to properly install a vessel sink. Before beginning the install, it is important to properly measure the basin to ensure proper fit into the existing space allotted for the basin and vanity.
