- Choice Of Materials And Finish. Following the wider plumbing category, laundry utility sinks emphasize hard work and long lasting use. Any number of cleaning chemicals may come into contact with your utility sink so you need to select non staining non porous bacteria-resistant finishes. Stainless steel utility sinks are increasingly popular with home owners, who appreciate the rugged strength and good looks in this industrial finish. Pick 16 gauge or 18 gauge stainless steel for your utility sink, since these heavier grades will resist dings and breakage over the life of your home. Avoid "builders grade" or 24 gauge stainless steel. Similarly, cast iron utility sink designs give you reliable long lasting life, so that you can handle the toughest task with confidence.

Self Rimming, Console, Corner And Undermount Option . Once you've measured for available space you'll be able to determine the optimum combination of utility sink and storage cabinets. The simplest and most economical strategy to maximize cleaning and storage simultaneously is to purchase a self rimming utility sink, in the 25 inch to 33 inch range, for easy installation over a two door utility cabinet.
