Top Mount Sinks

Top mount sinks are a popular choice when it comes to kitchen makeover ideas since they are both functional and stylish. Top mount sinks are typically easier to clean than other models, are usually incredibly durable, and can withstand years of regular use.

The only downside to top mount sinks is they tend to have a rim that some homeowners just don't like the look of.

Undermount Sinks

Undermount sinks blend seamlessly with your countertops and are very in-style right now. These sinks also make it easy to sweep food crumbs or water directly from the counter into the sink.

Farmhouse/Apron Sink

Farmhouse sinks, also known as apron sinks, lend a unique and modern aesthetic to your kitchen. They are also usually deeper and wider than other sink models, which makes them perfect for large families who need a high-capacity sink.  

These sinks tend to be a little pricier than other sinks, but the final result is well worth it for most people.

Double Bowl Sink

When it comes to remodeling kitchen ideas, few sinks have the same kind of impact as double bowl sinks. These sinks are highly flexible, provide more workspace, and make it easy to have a clean side and a dirty side while washing dishes. 

However, some people find that it's difficult to fit large pots and pans in a divided sink, and they prefer one extra large basin instead.
