27 Porcelain Sink Ideas

I’m a 35-year-old remodeling contractor working across Dallas, Plano, and North Texas for over 15 years. In last decade, porcelain sinks become one of the most requested upgrades in bathroom and kitchen remodels. Homeowners want something durable, easy to clean, and modern looking.

Porcelain is fired at temperatures above 2,200°F, making it extremely dense and resistant to stains. In real Texas remodeling projects, porcelain sinks last 20–30 years with proper installation.

Most clients pair sinks with matching surfaces from premium

porcelain tile collections for complete design consistency.
