Over the course of time, most homeowners decide

If giving your kitchen a facelift by replacing the sink sounds like something you would like to do, you will need to decide which replacement sink is right for you. For ideas on a new sink for your kitchen, a visit to your local hardware store should give you a wide variety of options to spark your imagination. If not, you can go online and get literally thousands of ideas to find one that you are going to be really happy using for years to come. Bear in mind, that while there are a vast amount of designs and information available online, it is always a good idea to go somewhere you can actually feel and touch the fixtures before making a purchasing decision. Before falling in love with a particular design, you need to make sure that you are focusing on sinks with the right size and style for your kitchen. If you will be replacing your existing counter, you can choose pretty much any sink size. But if you are looking to replace a sink and keep your current counter, you have to choose a sink that will fit into the current counter structure. Counters typically have a pre-defined size that can be accommodated without modification. Selecting a sink that is too small or is too large will result in a substantial amount of extra work from someone skilled in carpentry. The sink style is also an important consideration. If your current sink has one basin, you will probably be limited to replacing with a single basin style sink or, again, be prepared for some serious work on retrofitting the existing counter. There are some replacement sinks with smaller basins that will allow you to replace a single basin model with a dual basin design. Just be very careful of the size and accept that each basin will be pretty small. This will also require more plumbing to install, but that isn't a major factor in your decision. The last factor in your decision is the color. Color is a very personal decision and there are many from which to choose. Stainless steel is probably the most common these days, but there are so many from which to choose, you will undoubtedly find the perfect color for you dream kitchen.
