Countertop Shopping? Don’t Forget About Your Sink and Faucet!

When shopping for a new countertop, it’s important to remember that your sink and faucet are also part of the equation. Your sink and faucet should be chosen with your countertop in mind, in order to create a cohesive look. In this blog post, we will discuss some things you need to consider when choosing a sink and faucet for your new countertop.

Sink and Faucet Considerations

Functionality

First and foremost, you need to make sure that your sink and faucet are functional. They should meet your needs in terms of size, shape, and function. Consider how you will use your sink and faucet, and make sure that they are up to the task. In terms of countertops, you will also need to make sure that your sink and faucet fit the hole cutouts in your countertop.

Style

Another thing to consider is style. Your sink and faucet should match the overall style of your kitchen or bathroom. If you have a modern room, then you’ll want a modern-looking sink and faucet. If you have a more traditional kitchen or bathroom, then you’ll want something that looks more traditional. There are many different styles to choose from, so take your time and find something that complements your overall room design.

Finish

The finish on your sink and faucet is also important. You’ll want to choose a finish that complements your countertop and other fixtures in your room. For example, if you have stainless steel appliances, then you might want to choose a stainless steel sink and faucet. Or, if you have a marble countertop, then you might want to choose a white or brushed nickel finish. There are also composite sinks to compliment all granite and quartz options. There are many different finishes available, so take your time and browse all your options!

Sink and Countertop Compatibility

Beyond functionality, style, and finish, there are several other considerations to keep in mind when making sure your sink and countertop are compatible. 

Countertop Material – When choosing a countertop material, you’ll likely want to choose a material that is durable and easy to care for. At Amanzi Marble & Granite, we carry a range of countertop materials including marble, granite, quartz, and quartzite. We can help you choose the right countertop material depending on your needs!

Sink Size – Make sure that your sink is the right size for your countertop. You don’t want a sink that is too small or too large. A farmhouse-style sink, for example, is lower than a typical sink and has different requirements regarding sizing the countertop.

Faucet Holes – Your countertop will need to have the proper number of holes cut out for your faucet.  Most sinks will require at least two holes: one for the faucet and one for the drain. Some sinks will require additional holes for things like a sprayer or soap dispenser.

Edge Profile – The edge profile of your countertop will also need to be considered. Some sink and faucet combinations will only work with certain edge profiles. For example, an undermount sink requires a countertop with a flat or slightly beveled edge.

Accessories – There are many different accessories available for sinks and faucets. A built-in soap dispenser, for example, can be a great addition to your kitchen. This will, in turn, impact the number of holes required to be cut into the countertop.
