What to Look for in Bathroom Vanity Tops
By Max Bellamy
Bathroom vanity tops offer many options to the discerning customer. Ideally, they should all have a strong, smooth surface that defies stains and spills, mild heat and impact. Some materials on the market are heat and burn proof. Product durability and appearance are important since the bathroom vanity top will be used often. Beyond these considerations there are the matters of style, design and function. Bathroom vanity tops come either standard or custom to suit your bathroom.
One-piece constructions come with the coved backsplash and the bowl formed into the top by the manufacturer, creating a smooth continuous surface, and eliminating dirt-catching hard to clean seams. If you choose a vessel sink, the splashguard would be inconsequential.
The choices of bathroom vanity tops can be overwhelming. Some basic types of materials are available to the homeowner, which help to narrow the choice based on what material is most appropriate for your bathroom furniture. Some of the most popular choices of vanity tops include: marble, stone, prefabricated and synthetic materials, slate and tiles. If you purchase your vanity top separately from your bathroom vanity cabinet and sink, you always have the option to install it yourself, and many of the prefabricated models come with standard faucet holes pre-drilled.
Design and style are guiding principles when refining your choice of bathroom vanity tops. From the simple, clean designs of contemporary rectangular and oval shapes, to more richly fluted scallop designs, you can begin to create a bathroom that carries your personal signature. Many bathroom vanity tops can be made to order allowing the more creative homeowners to express and define their personal vision. The top is one of the contributing factors to beautify your bathroom environment and should be carefully considered as an integral part of any bathroom vanity.
