What types of sinks are available
Undermounted - These sinks create a smooth look which blends with modern designs. The bowl is attached underneath a countertop. No sink rim shows above the countertop.
Integral - Both the sink and countertop are fabricated from one material (for example, stone or solid surface). There are no visible seams on the surface. It is a sleek, modern and low maintenance design.
One-piece pressed sink - This sink is fitted as an independant unit into an already positioned kitchen cupboard.
Rimmed sinks - The most common and least expensive sink design. It is multipurpose, but adds little drama or style to the room.
Tile-in is used as its name suggests. It used with tile countertops. Tile-in sinks are designed to mount even with a tiled surface so that there is no visible separation between the sink and the surface. If your scheme is Country, Eclectic or even Contemporary, this is the sink for you.
Before making any decision, check with the supplier that your installation plan is appropriate to the sink material.
