Small Master Bath 1 sink or 2?
Comments (8)Cedar, I don't think you will be able to center the entry door, the entry will need to be a bit closer to the north wall. Interior of shower needs to be at least 30" x 30." Doorway opening needs to be at least 32" wide, regardless of whether this is a pivot door, barn door, or pocket door. Check your local code. Will this be your only linen closet? I would extend the vanity across the north wall with two sinks and add upper storage in one central tower. A narrow, tall cabinet on one side with a 72" vanity can work, but asymmetry in a small room can make it look even smaller. A 60" vanity gives very little counter space with 2 normal-size basins (18" x 12"). Code requires that centerline of sink be at least 15" from side wall, to avoid bumping elbows against walls. With 18" sinks, a 60" vanity would leave only 6" of counter space on each side and 12" in the center. My second choiceI would be a 48" vanity with one sink and a big storage cabinet. That sacrifices the second sink, but offers lots of storage and counter space. In the sketches below, I'm using a 30 x 50" shower and a 24" deep vanity. 1st design is 72" vanity and 2nd design is 86" vanity....See More15 inch sinks in master bath
Comments (14)We have 15” sinks in our secondary bath with a 72” vanity as well as a powder room. I do find the sinks to be a bit small, and there was a lot of splashing until I changed out to better faucets. It does sound like you at least verbally agreed to 18” and they went against your wishes. If you can prove it, with a signed contract, go ahead and change them. Or - use as leverage for a discount or other service....See MorePositive, Zero or Negative sink reveal in Master Bath vanity?
Comments (3)Joe - I was hoping you might see this! Thank you for confirming that the present sink allows no other option. So then I need look for a porcelain sink? I did some quick looking around, but didnt' find much beyond smaller sinks. If you (or anyone) is aware of a sink that would even allow a thinner overhang, that would be great! I'm stumped....See Moremaster bath- single or double sink in a 48" vanity
Comments (8)I'll say single sink 100% of the time. It's just practical, as it allows for drawer storage space; that's more important than a duplicate sink. Go with one nice sink on one side /a decent-sized drawer on the other side. In this case, a 4' vanity cannot support two sinks. Not unless you're talking about those mini-Ikea sinks. As for resale, even people who really want duplicate sinks don't want poorly-designed duplicate sinks....See MoreCheryl Smith
