i am planning a guest bathroom remodel. Now room has 60"-- 22" deep vanity w17" over mount/drop in sink. The tub sits across from the vanity..it's 55"x29" and we will maybe go longer but no wider if we can find what we want. Toilet sits at end of vanity. Plumbing is on interior/framed walls.
I want to have an apron-front sink look but in smaller bathroom cabinet 22" front to back. To do that I need to use a vessel-- rectangular or square --sink but mounted as undermount...I want the finished front to show... It can overhang cabinet front a little bit don't want it to be higher than countertop...
I have found some photos of such in bathrooms but many are smaller kitchen farm-apron front sinks in kitchen cabinet. I can't take that much space. I found a couple using vessel sinks in undermount spaces with custom cabinetry...don't have time or cash for a custom vanity if it is feasible to retrofit something more ready made...
Google Porsche vessel sinks + undermount and photo on Houzz should come up... Style is too contemporary for us but basically layout I like...
Can the plumber do an install with a vessel sink where the dimensions work for an undermount of same size? Or are there other issues? We aren't moving any plumbing and won't need permits...will use licensed plumber...likely ones who did our master bath last fall...but I want to know if what I want IS workable so I know how hard to press if he and the tile guy who is the running the job get recalcitrant.
Appreciate any specific suggestions or past experience you care to share.
