Mold Your Concrete Sinks Into Your Own Elegant Artpiece

More from the Kitchen Remodeling Gallery

Concrete brings amazing versatility to the kitchen sink. Because concrete is so moldable a homeowner can literally pour their sink into any possible shape -- square, rectangle, oval, round -- and that's just where the options start. Integral concrete sinks are formed as part of the countertop, that is concrete and countertop create one seamless structure. You just can't get any more sleek than that. These strong lines that only a concrete sink can create add style and elegance to any kitchen.

Colors are no obstacle either. Beyond the traditional grayish hue of concrete, the color palette heads off in all directions from tan to red to green, white, and beyond. Every concrete sink contractor will offer their own array of standard colors as well as premium colors and the option of creating custom colors to suit your desires. Contractors' individual color recipes, including differences in concrete mix, pigments, stains and aggregate, guarantee that every concrete sink will be one of a kind.

Concrete sinks, like any other concrete product, is subject to hairline cracks depending on the character of the concrete itself. Concrete sinks are always sealed to a water and stain resistant finish. Concrete sinks also will require some maintenance in the form of waxing every few months. Bleach and harsh abrasives may damage the concrete as well as repeated subjection to high heat (i.e., cookie sheets directly out of the oven/hot pots and pans).
