my search for a tiny sink.

so, i’m doing this rehab on my 2flat. added a half bath to each unit, but the 2nd flr is particularly small. the contractor came up w a 23” sink, but it’s too big.
so, i go in search. my usually recycling place lets me down. i try to search online and find that lowes cant keep depth and width straight.
i stink my nose in the home despot, and they have the perfect thing for a good price. phew.

well, i went to grab it today. didnt see it, couldnt get a sales person, but i ask at the window/door desk to check if it’s available. no. not there, and not in most of the other nearby store, tho there is 1.
well, thinking it might be discontinued, i try to find a manager, and see if they will sell me the display. i think there’s an inventory going on. by now it’s taken my half an hour to get a pint of paint and a clerk. i cant get service. so while i’m waiting for a manage, i pull up lowes page, see an 18”, figure f it, and go.
get to lowes, and yes indeed, it is 18” deep, not wide.

so i come home, figure i’ll order online and see how long it takes. guess what? web site says the store has 5. i order for pickup, 20 min later, there is it.


le sigh. this whole job has been a nightmare. i’m so glad it’s almost done.

eta- i guess i didnt make a big enough deal about the fact that they did have the sink i was looking for. just have to pick it up.

1. make your own square one to size with waterproof backing board.

If you have to...

otherwise, check on eBay and local salvage shops. Maybe you can cobble together a cool solution.

2. Should look for a bar sink.

4. I think OP has found a sink. But if the problem recurs, another option

Is a “vegetable sink” for a kitchen. They’re small.

3. I would look at RV/camper supply places.

5. I once had a small powder room off the mud room and it had a cool but very small corner sink

Similar to this

saw a few that would have worked.

7. If you get desperate, there's always Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/small-sinks-tiny-bathrooms/s?k=small+sinks+for+tiny+bathrooms

Lowe's also has a lot of options but they're likely special order.

Good luck.

9. Wayfair...you can search by size.

In fact, they are very good about providing the exact sizes of things.
