Feb 10, 2021 | Construction, House, Premier Countertop Installation and Fabrication, Workstation Sinks

Most of us spend a lot of time in the kitchen. It is a place to create memories, spend time with family and host friends. Therefore, you want your kitchen to be as stylish as it is functional. 

Workstation sinks are a popular design element that will make an aesthetic and practical impact inside your home. They include custom accessories that slide back and forth and allow you to smoothly transition from washing and chopping to clean-up without all of the countertop clutter and mess! 

Here at Bad Lizard Granite & Quartz, we are excited to announce that we now offer and install these stylish and multifunctional sinks. Continue reading to learn more about workstation sinks and why they might be the right look and choice for your next kitchen design project.

WHAT ARE WORKSTATION SINKS? 

Workstation sinks help you to maximize space and minimize movement in the kitchen. They incorporate custom accessories that allow you to convert the sink area into a versatile workspace (ranging from food preparation to clean-up and drying). Workstation sink accessories commonly include cutting boards, colanders, drying racks, roll-up drying racks, bottom grids and drains. Best of all, these custom accessories do not take up additional countertop space, which is a dream come true if you are working with limited countertop space or in a smaller kitchen!

WHAT DOES THE LEDGE DO?

Workstation sinks are also known as ledge sinks. Workstation sinks have a built-in sink ledge that creates a custom track for their accessories. This custom track allows you to extend your workspace and optimize it to your needs. For instance, you can place the colander on one side of the sink to dry off vegetables and simultaneously place the cutting board on the other side of the sink to cut the vegetables up once they are dry. And once again, you are not taking up any additional countertop space to do it.

WHAT ARE SOME FEATURES OF OUR WORKPLACE SINKS? 

We currently offer and install two models of Elkay Crosstown workstation sinks at Bad Lizard Granite & Quartz. One of the models is a single basin sink, while the other model is an equally-sized double basin sink with a low center divider. Both models offer various features that can help improve the functionality and look of your kitchen.

Clean and Sleek Appearance 

If you are looking for a sink that will add a clean and sleek appearance to your kitchen, look no further than our workstation sinks. Our workstation sinks are installed beneath the countertop to create a seamless appearance between the sink and the countertop. Additionally, they have a clean, geometric design with straight sidewalls and a flat bottom for a modern look and to create more usable space in the kitchen.

Lasting Durability and Performance 

Our workstation sinks are designed to last — they are made of 18-gauge thickness and type 304 stainless steel. This high-quality stainless steel will help your workstation sinks to have lasting durability, performance and beauty. 

Single Basin or Double Basin Options

Our workstation sinks come in a single basin or double basin option. Our single basin sink gives you uninterrupted space for washing and stacking dishes or other household tasks. Our double basin sink allows you to conveniently and separately use its equal-sized bowls for washing, soaking, rinsing, drying or other household tasks. It also has a low center divider that allows pan handles to extend easily over the center and makes it simpler to wash large items.

Noise Reduction 

Say goodbye to the loud clanging of pots and pans in the sink! Our workstation sinks are built with sound-deadening pads and undercoating to enhance performance and make for a quieter time at the sink.

Includes Custom Accessories 

If you love to cook and entertain, workstation sinks help create a versatile workspace and keep your kitchen cleaner and safer too. Our workstation sinks include custom accessories like a wood cutting board, wood-handled colander and drying rack, roll-up drying rack and bottom grid(s). These accessories slide back and forth along a built-in sink ledge and allow you to wash, chop, strain and clean-up right over the sink. This keeps the space organized and means no more worrying about countertop clutter or spills and stains either!
