Custom Design Your Vanity Countertops For Added Appeal

When it comes to choosing vanity countertops for your bathroom, you can really focus more on the design you want and worry less about its durability and functionality, because a bathroom counter really doesn't go through a lot of wear and tear. Unlike the kitchen counter which we use to its full capacity, a bathroom counter is mostly decorative, so the challenge is in finding a counter to suit your style and fit your space.


The bathroom vanity sink on the other hand should be considered with more functionality in mind, because you want something that not only fits the style, but that will be durable, reliable and convenient for a long time. Having these things in mind, you should also consider the idea of a custom made vanity area, since you can then design all aspects yourself, but before you do, think about the different options and what they can offer.

Vanity Countertops Options

Stainless Steel

This is a very modern option that can enhance the look of a contemporary bathroom. It also wears well, so over time it will continue to look beautiful. The downside is that it can be a little pricier than most options, but it is a unique, appealing choice. Glass is another very modern option, but it can be tedious to keep fingerprint free.

Granite

This is another expensive option, but rightly so. It is the most durable countertop solution, it can be easily maintained with simple warm water and dish soap, and it is very attractive. They do need to be sealed every 6 months to avoid cracking, but aside from that they are easy to manage.

To find cheaper prices, try shopping around for extra slabs that were cut from another person's project. These odd pieces could be big enough for your bathroom and will save you a lot of money so that you don't need to custom order anything. You can also get the same look as granite with manufactured quartz though without the cost of frequent sealing and more durability.

Tile

Tiles have been used forever as bathroom countertops and backdrops, and now they are better than ever since many are coming out in larger sizes, meaning there is less grout cleaning and repairing to do. They also come in many colors and different finishes to accent any style you have, and they are much cheaper than many other options.

Laminate


If budget is really your concern, a laminated countertop is still the best solution. It is less durable than expensive options like granite, but it does come in many colors and can run you as low as $10-16 per square foot.

Sinks and Fixtures

Once you choose from the many countertop ideas, you need to complete your custom look by choosing a sink and the necessary fixtures. As many countertops as there are are, there are also a lot of sink options to choose from. Traditional white porcelain sinks will be the least expensive, but you can also get bathroom sink vanities that are more unique and exciting.

Vanity Countertops

Any furniture piece can serve as a stand for a bowl shaped sink to be placed on top of, or you can even order a solid surface countertop with a sink carved directly into it. A corner bathroom vanity can make any simple piece look interesting simply be the placement of it, or you can play with modern ideas like glass, brass, chrome, stainless steel or copper sinks.

If you are not sure what to go for, there are many experts such as bathroom remodelers you can consult to seek advice or suggestions, but look around at different showcases to get a better idea. 

Vanity countertops come in such a large variety these days that you can truly add your own flair to whatever you choose. Match your budget with the style you want and start searching for the best deals.
