Kitchen Types and Installation
 
  
 
D

  
  

This style of sink features a finished edge or raised rim around the outside and can be dropped into any custom countertop

 
    
  Advantages:
  • Most common type of sink (along with undermount sinks).
  • Simplest type of sink to install.
  • Can be replaced without destroying the countertop.
  • Can have one, two, or even three bowls, as needed.
 
  Observation:
  • The raised lip that sits between the counter surface and the sink makes it more difficult to clean up spills and crumbs.
  • All the Drop-in sinks, Veggie-Bar and Apron Sinks with flat rims can be installed as undermount sinks, too.
 
 
 
 
U


  
  

A style of kitchen sink that is positioned under the cutout of the countertop and attached to its underside. The rim of the sink is covered by the countertop, so only the inside of the basin is visible. This sink sits slightly below the surface of the countertop.

 
    
  Advantages:
  • Most common type of sink (along with drop in sinks).
  • Offers a smooth profile with solid-surface countertops, making cleaning easy.
  • Have a clean, distinctive look.
  • Can have one, two, or even three bowls, as needed.
 
  Observation:
  • Though a bit more difficult and time-consuming to install than drop in sinks, they offer a more integrated look.
  • Additional installation hardware, which is easy to find at most plumbing or hardware stores, such as mounting clips and silicone, may be required to complete the installation.
  • All drop-in, veggie & bar, and apron sinks with flat rims can be installed as undermount sinks.
  • Undermounting sinks are used most often with stone or solid-surface countertops, and not with laminate countertops, because the edge of the countertop is left exposed by undermounting.
