Countertop basins are designed to sit on top of a vanity unit, worktop or on a bathroom shelf. They are the ultimate in designer chic for stylish bathrooms. Unlike inset basins or semi recessed basins, which are integrated into the surface of the vanity unit, countertop basins stand proudly independent, creating a conversation starting focal point that brings beauty and practicality into your bathroom space.
Countertop Bathroom Sink
Available in an extensive range of shapes, sizes, and materials, they can complement any bathroom style. Whether you prefer a sleek, minimalist look or a more ornate and traditional style, there is a countertop basin to suit your needs. Oval and round basins bring a sense of softness and calm, while square or rectangular countertop basins provide a bold, angular statement.
Countertop basins offer practical benefits that make them a popular choice for modern bathrooms. They also contribute to stylish bathrooms by creating a clean, uncluttered look and enhancing the visual appeal of contemporary spaces.
Easy Installation: As they sit on top of the countertop, there is no need for complicated cutting to ensure a perfect fit onto a counter top or vanity unit. This saves time during installation and reduces labour costs, being more wallet friendly.
Space Saving: Countertop basins are ideal for optimising space, especially in smaller, compact bathrooms where every inch of spare space counts. Because the basin is fitted on the countertop, it frees up valuable drawer and cupboard space in your vanity unit. This is especially handy in family bathrooms where storage is needed for everyone's bathroom essentials.
Focal Point: The striking design of countertop basins naturally draws the attention of anyone who uses the bathroom, making them a stylish centrepiece. Whether it's fitted in a main family bathroom or a guests ensuite, these basins leave an impression on anyone who uses them.

Surface Mounted Sinks
A countertop basin is a type of surface mounted sink that sits directly on top of a vanity unit or worktop surface, making it a great choice for modern bathrooms. Its sleek and minimalist design adds a touch of elegance to any bathroom space. Available in a range of shapes, sizes, and finishes, countertop basins can seamlessly fit into various bathroom designs, whether you have a compact en suite or a spacious family bathroom. They are also a cost-effective option for renovations, offering a stylish upgrade without breaking the bank. Many countertop basins are made from high-quality materials such as ceramic, stone, and even metals such as copper or stainless steel. This ensures durability and that they can withstand daily use in a busy family bathroom and maintain their wow factor for many years.
Installing a table top wash basin is different from setting up a wall-hung or pedestal basin. Unlike other types of basins, countertop basin bowls are not attached to the wall at all. To ensure a proper and secure fitting, it is recommended to hire a qualified professional. Proper installation is crucial to ensure the long life and functionality of your countertop basin. These modern countertop basins can be installed on a countertop or worktop, with the plumbing concealed beneath the bowl, creating an uncluttered look that boosts the overall bathroom design.
Countertop Sinks
Countertop sinks are relatively easy to maintain and care for, ensuring they remain a stunning feature in your bathroom for years to come. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap and water is recommended to keep the basin looking its best. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scourers, as they can cause damage to the surface of the basin. For natural stone basins, applying a stone sealant can protect the surface from stains and spills. For ceramic and porcelain basins, a gentle cleanser and a soft cloth can be used to clean the surface.
Whether you're renovating your home to increase it's value, improve it's style, or just create a more enjoyable space for yourself to use, a countertop basin is an investment you won't regret. Why settle for an ordinary basin when you can have the wow factor with an extraordinary countertop basin?
