Semi-Recessed Basins - rectangle

A semi-recessed basin is a sink that’s partially embedded into the countertop, with the front edge extending slightly beyond the vanity. This design combines the clean lines of inset basins with the accessibility of wall-mounted styles, making it ideal for compact or contemporary bathrooms.

To install a semi-recessed basin, a cut-out is made on the vanity top to match the basin’s size. The basin is then lowered into place so its front projects outward. Silicone sealant is applied around the edges to create a secure, watertight fit before connecting the plumbing.
