Hand Crafted Sinks by Bucks County Soapstone feature tongue and groove joints as our construction method. The bottom of the sink will be tapered toward the drain and the drain hole will fit any manufacturers strainer. We do recommend the Kohler 8801. We offer these sinks in custom sizes or standard sizes. These sinks are also available with the following options.

Slab constructed Slant Front Sink

You get a good idea of how nice it is to have a slant front sink by looking at this photo.  The ergonomics of a sink that comes toward you is often overlooked when thinking about a slant front sink.  Think about standing at the sink with a pot full of water, you have an extra 2” of room as you lift and lean back than a straight front affords you.  We build a lot of slant front sinks because they make sense.

This Slant Front Sink gives you even more lifting grace because of the scooped top.  We started doing this sink with our really historic homes where we were going for the 100 year old look.  It has become very popular with all of our customers.  Notice the recessed and runnels combination drainboard on the right of this sink.

High Backsplash Sink with Slant Front, Boxed out back, offset drain, Arched Top and Lift off lid.

There really is a lot going on here.  This high backsplash sink is built for those of you who love the look but the plumber has told you having plumbing in an outside wall “will be nothing but trouble”.  Well we have worked this out so both you and the plumber can be happy.  This sink has a boxed out area behind the high backsplash, this allows your plumbing to stay at its traditional location, either coming out of the wall or floor.  The plumber then can install the faucet by accessing the “box out” through the lift off lid at the top of the sink, in this case it is behind the Arched Top.  The faucet is hooked up to the supplies using the stainless steel braided hoses. 
Also notice this sink base is recessed 2” back from the adjacent cabinets.  This allows you to have the sink 1” proud of the sink base and the top of the Slant Front Sink is then flush with the front of the side cabinets.  This is a nice detail to use in a Reproduction Farm Style kitchen or the Real Thing.

This high backsplash Laundry Tub features the same boxed out back as the kitchen sink seen above.  This lid is also easy lift off.  The rest of the specifications are the same as the standard Laundry Tub.

Laundry Tub with washbaord

I know you’re probably thinking, “Who would use a washboard these days?”  I have heard that many times and then when those folks are ready to order the sink I say, “So you want us to build it without the washboard right?”  They always say “Oh no, I want it I think it’s really cool.”  We usually have this sink in stock with the washboards.  They are 20” wide x 25 ¼” front to back and 14 ½ high.  We use a standard kitchen sized drain.  The front of the sink is Slanted which works really well just in-case you would use the washboard.

Roll over the sink with your mouse to see the top view of this sink.

If you want to have something different due to special site requirements let us know, this customer wanted the high backsplash on the left side and the front of the sink slanted.  We needed to box out the side for plumbing and add a return because the back side would be visible for the first couple inches. No problem.

Triple Bowl Sink

This very cool sink was specified by the customer’s Architect.  As you can see there are three bowls with 2 different depths.  A sink configured like this will require 2 faucets.  Looks like a very country setting right?  It is actually located in beautiful Center City Philadelphia.
