When checking out sinks, there are generally two types to choose from, a surface mounted sink and an under-mounted sink. Like their names suggest, a surface mount sink is mount from the top of your counter while an un-mounted sink is installed from underneath. Sinks also come in a wide variety of materials and you can choose one that suits the current decor of your kitchen. Many sinks are made from marble or porcelain but stainless steel sinks are by far the most common and with good reason. Stainless steel sinks are very easy to install and maintain. They are also often more affordable than other types of sinks.
When choosing taps on the other hand, there are also two types to choose from. Many taps have two handles while some have one. In the two handle variety, one handle controls the flow of cold water while the other one controls the flow of hot water. One handle taps control both hot and cold water depending on which way the handle is turned.
If you are still unsure of what type of sink and taps to purchase, then visiting a kitchen showroom is by far your best option.
