1. How do I choose the right bathroom sink faucet?

Start by determining your mounting type: single-hole, centerset, widespread, or wall-mounted. Choose a finish that coordinates with your existing hardware and overall bathroom design, such as chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, or oil-rubbed bronze. Consider the faucet's height and reach to ensure it works with your sink basin. Match your faucet's style to your bathroom's aesthetic, whether that's modern minimalist, traditional, or transitional. 

2. What size faucet do I need for my bathroom sink?

For proper proportions, the faucet spout should reach about 1/3 into the sink basin, typically 3-5 inches from the center of the mounting hole to the spout's end. The faucet height should be 6-8 inches for vessel sinks, 4-6 inches for undermount sinks, and 3-5 inches for drop-in sinks. Ensure at least 1 inch clearance between the faucet spout and the sink's highest point. For vessel sinks, add 6-8 inches to your typical faucet height. When selecting a widespread faucet, standard spacing between handles is 6-12 inches. Always check your sink's specifications and pre-drilled holes before making a final selection

3. Are bathroom sink faucets universal?

Most faucets use standard connection sizes: 1/2 inch IPS (Iron Pipe Size) or 3/8 inch compression fittings for water supply lines. However, the mounting configuration varies: single-hole faucets require one hole, centerset faucets need three holes spaced 4 inches apart, and widespread faucets use three holes spaced 6-12 inches apart. Handle rotation and spout reach must match your sink's dimensions and configuration. Before purchasing, check your sink's hole configuration, measure the spacing between holes if present, and verify water line compatibility. While adapters are available for some configurations, it's best to match your faucet to your sink's specifications for optimal performance and appearance.
