The kitchen sink plays a crucial role when it comes to the kitchen design process. The sink you choose will need to provide functionality in harmony with your kitchen’s design style. 

Picking out the perfect sink, however, is just the beginning. You also have to pair them with the right faucet and accessories like matching soap dispensers. 

While this may seem like a minuscule kitchen element, it can offer a subtle design aspect capable of matching perfectly with your kitchen appliances or even cabinet hardware! 

At Deslaurier Custom Cabinets, we pride ourselves on providing our clients with the knowledge and expertise to create the perfect kitchen design. While we focus on functional, high-quality cabinetry, we know there is much more to a successful kitchen design than that

With that, let’s dive into 4 places you can buy kitchen sink faucets in Ottawa!

Buying Sink Faucets from Big Box Stores

At Deslaurier Custom Cabinets, we know that there’s not a one-size-fits-all mould when it comes to designing a beautiful kitchen. 

You can absolutely buy your kitchen sink faucets and accessories from large home improvement retailers like Home Depot, Lowe’s, Rona, or IKEA. 

Box stores like these buy in bulk to offer lower prices but will be limited with the selection of items available. Essentially, what you see is what you get.  

On the other hand, if you want to match your sink faucets and accessories with another feature in your kitchen, such as your appliances or cabinet hardware, you might want to go with one of the local retailers listed above. They will offer specialized industry knowledge and a more extensive inventory for you to choose from.
