What laminate counters for this bathroom?
Comments (19)Wow!! I love the colors you've painted in there with the vinyl slate flooring. Looks wonderful! Fresh and clean :) Kudos to you. I don't know that I would have had that "vision". It really looks pretty! As for counter, you might want to check out prices on cultured marble. We just had a long double vanity top done a few months ago, and it was quite reasonable. But we dealt with the cultured marble co directly. It has double sinks and was almost 70" long (another odd size). By the time we bought new sinks and the formica we were almost to the same price as cultured marble and it is all seamless. Straight edge front and they can make it with no back or side pieces if you want. I even considered just a cultured marble slab with raised bowls but decided in the end that I prefer the ease of cleaning something that is all one piece, especially in a bathroom that is used alot....See MoreNeed your opinion on shower stall
Comments (20)Thanks! The bathroom was just finished in April. Here's a link to my reveal on the bathrooms forum. I didn't list all of the details of fixtures and such but I guess I should have. Maybe I'll update it. The shower is in an alcove. My contractor made a custom pan so we could make it as large as possible. I think it is vinyl. I gained a few inches that way since I didn't have to use a standard size. The shower fixture is a Hansgrohe raindance shower pipe. I purchased on Amazon. My shower door was custom from a local shower door company. The floor tile is a 1"x2" Calacatta Gold marble herringbone from a local tile store. The subway and trim pieces are American Olean starting line white from Lowes. This was the only white subway I found that was a warm white instead of a bright white. I thought the color worked better with my floor. The grout is antique white on the floor and white on the walls. I haven't had a problem keeping it clean, but it is still fairly new.

Comments (14)Thanks everyone. I asked a new question, "[Which solid surfaces are refinish able? Sandable polishable[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/which-solid-surfaces-are-refinish-able-sandable-polishable-dsvw-vd~4260627)" because Iv read the onyx collection has a sealer which I assume would need to be reapplied if you polished out a stain. Joseph Corlett replied, "You want to get an acrylic or polyester sheet with an aluminum tryhydrate filler, Corian, Avonite, Staron, LG Hauseys HI-MACS available at lowes, Livingstone, Wilsonart" Im not sure why he didn't include Swanstone. I imagine the above manufacturers are quite expensive. But so is replacing another shower when it starts to look crumby. Mixing a shower pan with different walls is a possibility and if I did that, I would lean towards a cast iron receptor like kohler makes maybe. Swanstone refinishing I'm not sure why swanstone and cultured marble aren't considered SS. But Iv read cultured marble also has a sealer or clear coat like the onyx collection, which would make refinishing difficult. Ahh decisions decisions....See MoreMURALUXE - aluminium walls for showers and baths
Comments (7)@Tina Marie. I had to Google Miralax. Lol! Great reminder of the importance of a thorough product name research beyond a company's borders. ;-) @Joaniepoanie, this company works with dealers. Their site is not showing many outside Quebec, much less Canada. @daisychain Zn3b and @Re Tired: For alternatives to acrylic shower pans, there's Wetstyle, a Montreal company whose product "WETMAR BiO™ is an eco-friendly thermo-insulating composite material" using soy and mineral stone. Here's a couple of other options I found since: Fibo: Fibo 100% waterproof shower wall panels - this company is Norwegian and has been on the European market for over 30 yrs if I understand correctly. Don't know how long their panels have been available on the NA market. From their site: "The standard wall panel size is 94 x 24 inches and are easily clicked together with our patented Fibo Aqualock. Fibo is a complete system designed for both do-it-yourselfers and professional contractors to install with relative ease when following FIBO’s detailed installation instructions. FIBO also backs up product performance with a Limited LifeTime Warranty – Residential, and Limited 25 year warranty – Commercial applications." "Fibo wall panel is made of a core with seven layers of birch veneer made from PEFC-certified woods. The boards are pressed together and covered with high-pressure laminate so that you get the membrane in front. You then get a great looking, 100 percent waterproof and environmentally friendly wall in the style you want for your bathroom, kitchen or any other room." Aquatica: "AquateX™ is a technologically advanced solid surface composite material, developed by Aquatica®. 60% of AquateX™ is composed of the aluminum mineral that is derived from bauxite, a deeply weathered volcanic rock. By combining a high percentage of all the best properties of natural materials; and a low percentage of state-of-the-art acrylic resins; we were able to create a desirable, high performance cast stone material that is specifically, suitable for high-end bathroom applications." Wilsonart offers shower panels as well: Wetwall. Not easily available in Canada from what I can see. I have a few other open tabs with possibly interesting options to check out but don't have time to do so now. ETA: I know there's already a long thread about grout-less shower wall options in the forum. I'll see about finding it to add pertinent info there....See Moretartanmeup
