Your kitchen would not be complete without its sink, which allows you to wash your dishes, rinse your ingredients… To function properly, it requires pipes that can be cumbersome and not very visually pleasing. To remedy this aesthetic problem, we offer you our best to for hide sink pipes.
For DIYers: tailor-made formwork
For this technique, you need to take measurements of the area of piping you want to hide. Then, you can use wooden boards of the corresponding dimensions to make a kind of case that will hide the inelegant piping. We recommend, however, that you leave a space to access the pipes in case of a leak, or make it an easily removable structure. It is also a good idea to paint your casing the same colour as your walls, to make the camouflage even more effective.
For small spaces: extra storage!
This alternative is appreciated, especially if your bathroom is narrow and every corner has to be optimised. After measuring your pipes, look for a cabinet with the corresponding dimensions. It is important that your cabinet has a space at the back, so that your pipes fit perfectly into the cabinet.
