glass undermount bathroom sink

12 years ago

I really want one of these - under $400 range. I would really appreciate any input or sources. I need something that will go with my ivory tub and brown/beige tile.

I will install it myself so won't over tighten the drain area. I don't need an overflow but would like some sort of

plug to hold water. Definitely want it undermounted for easy cleaning. Also want some sort of brownish or goldish

faucet = hate chrome. Have bronze and the paint just wears off after a couple years. Like the color but it's not stable at all.

Appreciate any advice or tales of your experiences,.

Thank you

I think you can try the taps from Latitude-ST. I have friends who have used these taps...and they praise it alot.

Thank you - I love the shape of these fixtures but they all appear to be stainless or chrome. I've scrapped the
glass sink idea and have a vitreous china one ordered along
with the granite. I don't have room for a 19 in. round sink and that seems to be the norm. My vanity will be only
about 20 inches from front to back. It's a tiny room so want to keep things in scale as best I can,

I don't think you're making a mistake since you're going with it for aesthetic reasons. I have the portrait suite in my downstairs bath (pedestal sink though) and it seems like you're using it for the look. IMO it's really just the plain drop-ins that have no style to them that look less expesnive. The portrait series doesn't "look cheap" to me. It's the whole package IMO, not just any one element. The type of vanity and countertop you install it in will have as much of an impact as whether it is undermount or not.

integrated vs undermounted bathroom sinks

Integrated sinks aren't custom made, but they are usually installed at a countertop fabricators shop, not on site. I vote for integration. No clips, no silicone, no gunk, no maintenance.

"that sinks did not crack for no reason." No the reason more than likely is improper installation. Clips should never be used even though they come with the sink, use a sink harness or similar strap system. But two years later you are more than likely SOL on getting them to do anything about it without your paying. I would find someone else to install a new sink.
