New Bathroom Vanity & Counter - Not Square Wall....Ideas?
Comments (20)Thanks everyone for the ideas! I'm still a newbie to the forums so I didn't know how to find my posts. We've thought about going down to the 24" or 26" vanity, but I think we need more space. The more we look at it, the more we are thinking we need to just go with a templated granite and have it custom made to fit the space. The idea of the side splash sounds great BUT I think because the space is in the back side of the vanity, either the side splash will wind up being too short in the front side of the vanity or the back splash will be too short on the right side of the vanity. Unfortunately we can't "scootch" the vanity over to the right any more as it is already crowding the toilet a bit. I think it comes down to two options: - a smaller vanity, 24" or 26" - a templated granite On a side note, we are going to put the bathroom on the back burner for now and concentrate on the only major renovation our house needs: the split foyer basement/lower level. Thanks again for all the ideas!...See MoreReplacing bathroom vanity countertops.
Comments (0)I have a single sink vanity in the bathroom off our master bedroom (which unfortunately is not a master bath) and another single sink vanity (a few inches bigger) in our master bedroom. We are looking to keep the cabinets but replace the counter tops. We have the faucet and above-counter sink in mind. Those would require two cuts on each countertop: one for the faucet and one for the drain. For a visual of the idea here is the sink and the faucet listing on amazon, its the white rectangle sink and the brushed nickel faucet (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018S1Q0VU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3SE6K3TNDHAFT&psc=1). We are new to do the DIY world of home improvements but we're fearless and love to learn, so beat with me if I lack knowledge of terminology, I like to make up for that with a detailed explanation! So the vanity inside the bathroom is in a corner and touches two walls: the back and right side wall. The vanity in the master bedroom touches three walls: the left and back wall and a right half wall. So I think we will require the backsplash that matches the countertops for the sides and back of the counters. So, I'm here trying to find the best route to accomplish this DIY. We live south of Denver, CO and would like to install it ourselves to keep costs down. In addition to keeping costs down, I've been advised to check out remnant yards of stores that sell/install countertops since we don't need entire pieces like that of a large kitchen counter. Since these two vanities are separate but relate to the same bathroom, I am keeping the consistency across the two. We are not set on the color or the exact rock, so we are open. Please feel free to share any advice you may have! Again, we are inexperienced but everyone has to start somewhere and we are eager! I will post pictures and measurements of the vanities when I get the chance! Thanks in advance!...See MoreQuartz countertop for bathroom

Comments (9)There is nothing wrong with a laminate if it is in good condition. Some of us still buy it! My kitchen counters are Wilsonart laminate and my husband's bookcase appears to have a stone top, but it is Formica 360 with a matching edge. Even if you go with a very neutral top, you will be tied to the undertones in that white or off-white countertop when you remodel. You may curse yourself for such a constraint when you go to pick tile someday. BTW, when you do go to remodel the bathroom, it is not just a matter of re-tiling. A shower is a multi-layered thing. You can't remove the tile without ruining the waterproofing underneath (if there is any). You will likely be going back to the studs and redoing the wallboard and then waterproofing when it is time to do the shower. Not to mention the shower floor, which also will need to be waterproofed and sloped appropriately. So take your time and read in this forum over the intervening years and you will learn enough to have an intelligent conversation with your contractor (or family member) about the standard of waterproofing you expect them to achieve when they remodel. If you don't address it in the pre-planning, you may learn too late that they did not waterproof or they did it wrong....See Morepattyl11
