Bathroom wall mounted mixer tap placement
Comments (22)I think it is because if the tap handle doesn’t overhang the sink then wet hands drip water over the bench behind the sink. I have an undermount sink with same issue due to required setback from sink and we are learning to shake hands before turning off tap. Pro for wall mount no gunk around base of tap Negative according to my husband who refused to have wall mounted is the tap connections are in wall so if you get any leaks it’s hard to fix. But this goes same for shower I guess. We did have a faulty basin tap that leaked inside the handle area and down into cabinet so had to get replaced so I didn’t-push for wall mounted again....See MoreSink dilemma
Comments (1)Actually it would be not much different than the outside edges of the bench being knocked. It takes a good hit to chip it but it may happen. They have an 'aris' machined (or polished radius) around the edge of the cutout so its not a sharp edge that is easily knocked. Also they can polish out some edge chipping if and when it happens....See MoreUnder mount sink
Comments (11)If you have a stone or imitation stone benchtop, you pay a lot for that benchtop and the streamlined look, and having two sinks and a drainer cut out of that top doesn't make a lot of economic or visual sense. I have a single undermount sink with a portable drainer, which I quite like. I'd probably suggest a flushmount as a good alternative, in that it doesn't take out so much of the expensive stone. If you need a double sink with drainboard, I'd be looking at alternatives, and I was very fond of the corian-type benchtop in our last house....See More2in1 Bathroom Sink can be used as a laundry Sink
Comments (26)@wuff, Thank you so much, and congratulation for your renovation, I wish you will enjoy it for so many years to come. Yes, I agree living into a granny flat next to my son was my husband wish before he passed away. It is good to be close to family. Also I love the suburb which I have been lived in for 22 years. My Daughter and her family is living close by too. Most of my close friends are living around and we always gather for a brunch, or lunch or watch movies. The good thing is most of my friends pick me up and don't let me drive most of the time when we go out. Thank you again...See MoreKate
