Custom kitchen sink?

7 years ago

Our current kitchen sink is cast iron with the porcelain glaze. We want to replace it with a granite/quartz composite. Our issue is the shape. From what we can see online and our conversations today with someone at Ferguson, it's a custom shape that normal manufacturers don't seem to make. As you can see in the picture, there's a cutout but it only takes up about half of the left bowl of the sink while most cutouts are more even and take up the entire side of the sink. On top of this, our cut out seems to be a bit deeper than normal. Does anyone have any experience with this, suggestions of who to contact for a custom sink? The person at Ferguson recommended we consider replacing the counter or seeing if they could just cut out a bit more of the granite but I think if we cut out more it would be wider (front to back) than the normal sink cutout.

Here are some rough specs:

31" long x 17 3/4 wide for the main part, the cut out is approx 10" long and the max width is 20".

I think you should cut out the granite. There are plenty of custom sink companies online that would probably be able to make a sink with your dimensions.

Replacing all of the counters with a new sink would be cheaper than a custom sink.

This apron sink is my design and was installed yesterday. 16 gauge, American made. Email me; I'll hook you up. loosedeckcannon@gmail.com

Sorry GreenDesigns, you're not usually replacing your countertops for less than 4K. Even if you did, you sure wouldn't get this magazine-quality sink; you'd get a repeat of the leaking crap in the first picture.

What is the dimension of your sink base cabinet, please? If it's a 36", and you have a remnant piece of stone, you can have an Elkay Quartz Luxe. If not, you can have an Elkay 13322:

Budget $2,500.00 or so please. Let's see you replace your tops for that.

Here's a Quartz Luxe. They had a remnant for the rear rail. Good thing too, because the rod in the rear was blown but it hadn't shown itself yet, unlike the front which unfortunately can't be seen in the picture:

I love this sink. Not only because it's fantastic, but because if you don't need a remnant replacement, I can install one in five hours, plumbing included. A real moneymaker.
