FAQs
How does a butler sink differ from other kitchen sinks?
A butler sink is a deep, exposed-front ceramic or fireclay sink known for its generous capacity and timeless look. Unlike standard undermount or inset sinks, it sits forward and on display, adding a bold, functional focal point in the kitchen.
How do I install a farmhouse or butler sink in my kitchen?
Installation involves a custom cabinet that supports the sink’s size and weight. The benchtop will need to be cut to fit the sink’s shape, as it's not a drop-in design. Once positioned, plumbing is done much like a standard sink.
Do butler sinks suit both modern and traditional kitchen designs?
In Australia, a butler sink is typically seen as a feature in traditional kitchen designs, such as Hamptons, Farmhouse or Country styles. That being said, it can also suit modern kitchens when paired with flat-panel or shaker cabinetry and minimalist benchtops.
