Fireclay farmhouse sinks come in varied sizes and configurations. The most popular size is the 33" fireclay farmhouse sink followed by a 30" fireclay farmhouse sink. The most popular color is white indeed! Your kitchen size will be one of the key factors in deciding the size of your farm sink. We say the larger the sink the better if your kitchen space and layout allow for it.
The often-overlooked dimension is the width of the sink from front to back. Most sinks are about 18" wide front to back but some go up a couple of inches giving you more interior bowl space if your countertop allows for it. For a wider farmhouse sink from front to back that will give you more interior bowl space, take a look at our collections for fireclay farmhouse sinks from Houzer. With a wider sink, make sure you have enough space at the back to install your faucet and accessories while leaving enough room to clean behind the faucet. If you are short of space and really would like the larger sink, consider pairing it with a wall-mounted faucet.
**TIP - An important factor when considering the size of your sink is the size of your base cabinet. Farmhouse sinks require custom-made base cabinets, although existing cabinets can be retrofitted by a professional. The recommended size of the base cabinet is 3 inches larger than the size of the sink. So, a 33" farmhouse sink will need at least a 36" wide base cabinet.
