It&#8217;s one of those features that you probably wouldn&#8217;t even think to want if you hadn&#8217;t heard of it before, but makes so much sense when you do. Having a second sink, whether a small prep sink or a second full-sized one, can solve a whole host of common kitchen annoyances.

Even small sinks need both a water supply and a drain line, which means a good amount of construction. With a few exceptions, this project will almost always need to be part of a larger renovation. Before you so much as start looking at a sink, you should consult a contractor about the cost (and feasibility) of plumbing the area you have in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Size Matters<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/brand_whitehaus-whnd115_bar-sinks_noahs-collection_848130006888.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"418\" height=\"351\" alt=\"A Kitchen This Big Can Easily Justify Having Two Sinks (by Tervola Designs)\" class=\"wp-image-7401\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/\/2013\/06\/A-Kitchen-This-BIg-Can-Easily-Justify-Having-Two-Sinks-by-Tervola-Designs.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/A-Kitchen-This-BIg-Can-Easily-Justify-Having-Two-Sinks-by-Tervola-Designs.jpg 418w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/A-Kitchen-This-BIg-Can-Easily-Justify-Having-Two-Sinks-by-Tervola-Designs-300x252.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 418px) 100vw, 418px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>A kitchen this big can easily justify having two sinks (by Tervola Designs)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If getting plumbing to your ideal spot is both feasible and affordable? Ask yourself what need the sink is going to fill &#8211; and whether or not the sink you have already does it. Second sinks work better the bigger your kitchen is; even in a moderately sized kitchen, it isn&#8217;t a big trip from one end to another. A secondary sink might save you a few steps while making your coffee in the morning, but if there isn&#8217;t much space between the two sinks, it might not be worth the expense. For example, I&#8217;ve seen kitchens that have two sinks side by side, which seems unnecessary at best. On the other hand, very large kitchens with two obviously separate prep stations almost demand two separate sinks. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Does The Cooking?<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/brand_ruvati-rvh7120_bar-sinks_nesta_610370721926.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"438\" height=\"422\" alt=\"Two Sink Kitchen (by Workshop\/apd)\" class=\"wp-image-7400\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/\/2013\/06\/Two-Sink-Kitchen-by-Workshopapd.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Two-Sink-Kitchen-by-Workshopapd.jpg 438w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Two-Sink-Kitchen-by-Workshopapd-300x289.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 438px) 100vw, 438px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Setting up back-to-back sinks can make it possible to get more people involved in meal prep without overcrowding your kitchen (by Workshop\/apd)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Two-sink setups really shine in busy kitchens. For a family that cooks together or a couple that entertains, having only one source of running water can be a pain. Adding a second sink can allow two people to work comfortably in the same space without rubbing elbows. Though, again, this really works better the bigger the kitchen; even a small sink can monopolize the counter space in a too-small kitchen. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Than One Work Area?<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/brand_alfi-ab1717diw_bar-sinks_kitchen_811413023513.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"423\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Butler's Pantry With Prep Sink (by Venegas and Company)\" class=\"wp-image-7398\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/\/2013\/06\/Butlers-Pantry-With-Prep-Sink-by-Venegas-and-Company.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Butlers-Pantry-With-Prep-Sink-by-Venegas-and-Company.jpg 423w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Butlers-Pantry-With-Prep-Sink-by-Venegas-and-Company-290x300.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 423px) 100vw, 423px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Butler&#8217;s Pantry With Prep Sink (by Venegas and Company)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Secondary kitchen sinks are great for a second prep space, but it&#8217;s important to figure out ahead of time where the prep space is and why you need it. For example, having a second sink on the far side of a <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/m.homethangs.com\/blog\/2012\/11\/kitchen-islands-solving-your-common-kitchen-problems\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">large kitchen island<\/a> makes sense; a second sink will let you prep and clean up<mark class=\"annotation-text annotation-text-yoast\" id=\"annotation-text-4467a316-dc5f-4635-b6e2-dc033d226d63\"><\/mark> without forcing you to repeatedly cross the kitchen. Separate prep spaces can also be nice if you have a dedicated baking station where you keep basic ingredients and appliances but don&#8217;t want to hike back to the main sink to add water or wash your hands. Finally, if you have a large, butler style pantry, including a second sink in that space can save a lot of foot traffic. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will Just A Faucet Do?<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/brand_alfi-ab5018pss_kitchen-faucets_kitchen_811413022790.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" alt=\"Polished Stainless Steel Deck Mount Retractable Pot Filler Faucet AB5018-PSS from Alfi\" class=\"wp-image-21733\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/2013\/06\/Polished-Stainless-Steel-Deck-Mount-Retractable-Pot-Filler-Faucet-AB5018-PSS-from-Alfi.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Polished-Stainless-Steel-Deck-Mount-Retractable-Pot-Filler-Faucet-AB5018-PSS-from-Alfi.jpg 480w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Polished-Stainless-Steel-Deck-Mount-Retractable-Pot-Filler-Faucet-AB5018-PSS-from-Alfi-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Polished-Stainless-Steel-Deck-Mount-Retractable-Pot-Filler-Faucet-AB5018-PSS-from-Alfi-400x400.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><a aria-label=\"Polished Stainless Steel Deck Mount Retractable Pot Filler Faucet AB5018-PSS from Alfi (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/brand_alfi-ab5018pss_kitchen-faucets_kitchen_811413022790.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Polished Stainless Steel Deck Mount Retractable Pot Filler Faucet AB5018-PSS from Alfi<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If your primary reason for wanting a second sink is that you don&#8217;t want to have to tote a heavy container of water around your kitchen, installing a second sink might actually not be the best option.

A pot filler will allow you to fill pots, pans, and kettles directly on the stove.
