built-in laundry tub?
 

I would like to have cabinet and counter top built-in around the laundry tub. Don't want the ones at HD. Anyone know who does this? Recommendations please! Thanks!

What we do is buy a Kitchen counter base cabinet with a finished counter top, a deep well stainless steel sink, high goose neck kitchen faucet with a spray. A good plumber should be able to cut the hole in the counter top, install the sink, and hook up the water and drain lines. We find all the materials at our local Home Depot. Trying to build around the existing laundry tub never works, never looks good, and in time you would be removing it. I`m a plumbing contractor in Jersey and we do this all the time for our customers. Thats what I`m going to do as soon as I get back to my house in the Villages.

Baileys on hwy. 441 across from Lowes did ours.
They match our kitchen cabinets. Great job!

Minty, did you use your existing laundry tub? My laundry room guy (Munz) said it's impossible to get a good seal if they tried to put a countertop around the existing tub (the kind on legs). He told me to go to Lowes and find the sink I wanted and they would install it in the new countertop.

Judy, we bought a new laundry tub sink, they are very reasonable, then had Baileys put as many cabinets above and below as would fit in the room.
We also had them use 15" deep upper cabinets versus the usual 12", and it really makes a difference.

Thanks guys! Figured I'd have to have another laundry tub but didn't know who to go to. Gary, I will check out your idea. Also will check out Bailey's from Mintjulep.

Just another thought on the subject. We also had the ugly laundry tub on legs but decided that we would prefer to have the laundry tub out in the garage (since we never use it for laundry but do use it to wash paint brushes, etc, which are better done in the garage because of the potential mess.) We had the tub moved out to the garage and in its place had a nice pantry with pull-out drawers built. My wife is ecstatic with the greatly increased storage space that this provides.
