Replacing the bathroom sinks without new countertops?
Comments (8)debrak2008, I have to figure out how to post a pic here first :P. But the countertop is those yellowish cultured marble top (you see a lot of those in the older houses) but it's not one-piece. The sink is an undermount sink, so it's just like the typical granite top with undermount sink you see now. BUT mine is not granite top obviously, and the sink is rusty and scratched. sjhockeyfan and weedyacres, Thanks for your link! Yes I looked on craigslist and saw some ads for prefab granite tops too. And my friend told me about this too. But my problem is I can't find my size, esp. the 72 inch SINGLE sink countertop... :(. And if I custom made that one, it's expensive. The worst is that I need one 60 inch (I found that this countertop is the only one that's the most typical size) and one 72 inch that's matching right, cuz they're in the same jack & jill bathroom! For the 36 inch countertop for the half bath, the problem is the depth is 1 inch more shallow than the typical tops, so it's 20 inch. And I can't go any deeper because the top is right next to the door opening so 21" countertop won't work! So yes, my house has some strange bathrooms and I figured either we spent more money to hire someone to renovate (but we don't have that funds now) the bathrooms, or we try to make small changes. Of course, I wish I could be as handy as most of the members here then the problem can be solved easily :( Anyways, thanks for all your answers! Please do share if you have any more insights. Thanks again!...See MoreBathroom sinks/vanity are IN bedroom, not bathroom- HUH?
Comments (30)My parents house is like that, but there’s a wall with a wide doorway into the area with the vanity, so it’s open but also easy to close off by just putting a curtain rail up. It’s also oriented to the room such that if you only use enough light at the vanity to wash your hands for a midnight potty run, it really isn’t enough to bother someone in the bed if you place the bed sensibly. Getting ready in the morning would be trickier if you needed to do makeup and so on so needed proper lighting, so that’s where a screen or a curtain would come in....See MoreHow to extend vent underneath new bathroom vanity?
Comments (1)What is the size to the duct and the size of the opening? Home Depot sells 3 foot lengths of half section of rectangular duct. If you can find the right size you may be able to cut piece and slide it over the existing duct. You can trying sealing the transition with Nashua tape. It won't be air tight, but in this situation it should be good enough to get the majority of the air to flow out the vent cover....See MoreHelp! Staining white oak bathroom vanity without yellow or orange
Comments (8)The standard "Raw" looking whitish white oak is bleached, toned, and then protected with a water based top coating. If you want it to be the look of raw unfinished oak, it's not a single step process. It's a big big upcharge because of all of the steps. Wipe it with denatured alcohol to see what it would look like with a plain water based clear. If you are OK with that look, then tell them that a plain waterborne clear is fine....See Morechingshihy
