Sink installed in laundry room

[Barry]

We're making plans to finally have a sink installed in our laundry room and I have a faucet question.

Should we look at kitchen or bathroom faucets to supply water to the sink? Thanks in advance.

Laundry sink faucets usually depend on the size and style of the room.

For instance, a large fancy laundry room with nice cabinets, countertops and an under-mount sink may look best with a high-end kitchen faucet.

But, in most cases (such as in my own house), the laundry room sink may be just a free-standing tub sink.

In this case, I recommend you get a quality utility style faucet. Some laundry sinks even come with matching utility faucets. Utility faucets are durable and ideal for common cleaning tasks. They usually feature a swinging spout with a threaded end to attach a hose and two lever handles to control hot and cold water separately.

Remember, the point of a laundry sink is for working, so get a utility faucet that works best for you.
