Apron Front or Farmhouse Sinks

Unlike standard sinks, the apron front sinks are more visible in the kitchen space. The front is exposed as part of the cabinet face, therefore earning its name. The term Farmhouse is often used as well because a very long time ago, this was typically the only type of sink used. They are available in a variety of materials and colors. White Fireclay is the most common and a classic choice. There is also cast iron. However, stainless steel and Quartz are steadily becoming more popular. This style brings an air of uniqueness to new construction and kitchen remodels alike.

Undermount Sinks

These types of sinks are a standard choice in the kitchen with so many countertops being natural stone or quartz. The nature of the natural stone countertop materials lends itself to a nice polished edge where it meets the sink, which in turn eliminates having a sink ledge on top of the counter. This makes keeping the counter top clean easier since you can wipe right into the sink. They are available in stainless steel, which is the most common, as well as quartz, solid surface, fireclay, and cast iron.

Drop-in Sinks

These types of sinks have been the common choice with less expensive countertops such as Formica or other brands of laminate. They are available in stainless steel, which is the most common, as well as quartz, solid surface, fireclay, and cast iron. The edge of the sink rests on top of the counter and will have a set number of faucet holes
