Bathroom Vanity Designs That Work

Many homeowners plan their bath renovation projects around choosing the right shower installation or bathtub conversion. Apart from these parts, bathroom floors and walls also seem to get a lot of attention. One of the most overlooked aspects of bathroom remodeling, however, is the vanity.

The reason most people don’t consider their vanities too much is because it’s not always the most glamorous part of renovating a bathroom. Unfortunately, even the best designed baths can look awkward and out of place when paired with a poorly planned vanity. Here are tips from our experts at The Bathroom Store on how to pick out a vanity that would work with the rest of your bathroom.

Prioritize Placement

Like your shower installation and toilet, the placement options for a vanity is limited by your existing plumbing configuration. Re-doing the pipes means hiring professional plumbers and a higher cost. However, if you have the budget for it, there’s no reason it should limit your planning. When choosing a place for a vanity, consider three things:

  • Access
  • Plumbing
  • Design

A skilled and experienced remodeling contractor can help you find a suitable place where your vanity can become a focal point in your overall bathroom designs.

Choosing Materials

Make sure your vanity is made with materials that can resist the high humidity levels of a bathroom. Wood can be a good choice, although you want to avoid lacquer coated wood as lacquer reacts badly to prolonged water exposure. Choose stone countertops that can match the rest of the room to really make your vanity pop.

Sorting Out the Storage

The vanity you choose for your bathroom remodel should also offer great storage solutions. Talk to your contractor about incorporating drawers and cabinets to maximize storage space especially in very small bathrooms.

At The Bathroom Store, we can help you pick out a vanity that will highlight the rest of your bathroom renovation. Give us a call at (701) 223-1008 or fill out our contact form to schedule a design consultation and get a free quote on vanities and plumbing fixtures today.
