Vanity Tops

The bathroom is a space that straddles a delicate balance between style and functionality. As one of the most frequently-used rooms in the home, it is essential that a vanity top meets the needs of the space while remaining easy-to-clean and eye-catching in style. Discovering the best vanity tops for a bathroom is easy when you narrow down the search by type, shape, installation type, material, color, and other key factors.

Before starting the vanity top search, take a moment to consider the needs of the space. What is working currently? What does the bathroom need that it doesn't have now? Once assessing the requirements of the room, take careful measurements of the space to ensure the vanity top fits within the designated area.

Integrated Sink vs. Sink Hole Only

When selecting a vanity top, make sure to note whether the top comes with an integrated or included sink or whether it is a vanity top only. A top only provides a place for a sink but does not include the sink itself. This allows for a custom mixing and matching of pieces. If mixing and matching is overwhelming, select a vanity top with an included sink or an integrated sink that are already paired for a stylish match.

Shape

The shape of the vanity top is the basic structure of the piece. If you have a vanity base, it will play an important role in determining the required vanity shape. Most vanity tops are rectangular, oval, or circular.

Installation

Drop-In:

Drop-in vanity tops are designed to nestle into the vanity base with precision. This style also boasts a sink that is integrated into the design for a seamless look.

Console:

Console sinks offer a modern, streamlined look that can be installed on top of a vanity base or wall-mounted for a floating effect.

Deck-Mounted:

Deck mounted vanity tops feature holes in the back, making them ready to accept the faucet of your choice. When choosing a deck-mounted vanity top, take note of the numbers of faucet holes and the spacing and choose a faucet that coordinates with the holes.

Pedestal:

Pedestal sinks boast a free-standing design. They take up minimal space and are a popular choice in powder rooms and small guest bathrooms.

Surface:

Surface-mount vanity tops provide a sleek and minimal look. These low-profile tops secure to the vanity base and provide a timeless look.

Vessel:

Vessel sinks offer a modern take on a vintage look by elevating above the vanity base. High edges provide a dramatic look.

Wall-Mounted:

When floor space is at a premium, wall mounted vanities make a great option. These sinks mount directly to the wall, leaving the space below clear for a hamper, foot room, or a storage piece.

Style

The bathroom should blend in seamlessly with the style of the rest of the home. Whether you are trading out the vanity only or completely redecorating a bathroom, it's essential to first establish the style of the bathroom and then select items in keeping with that theme. Popular styles include:

• Traditional

• Contemporary

• Modern

• Rustic

Finish

Choosing a finish goes a long way to establishing a look for the bathroom. There are a wide array of vanity top finishes or colors to choose between. Among the most popular options are:

• Black

• Brown

• Grey

• Neutrals

Material

The material and the shape of the vanity top go hand in hand with establishing the look of the piece. Vanity tops are available in a wide range of different materials, including metals for an industrial feeling, natural stones for an elegant touch, and ceramic to keep things classic. Some of the most common vanity top materials include:

• Ceramic

• Stone Composite

Transform any bathroom in your home into a spa-like retreat by selecting a bathroom vanity top that provides the ideal combination of style and function. With any vanity top, take note of the items that come with the piece. Some include the top only while others come with sinks, faucets, and other accessories. With the right vanity in place, the daily routine becomes a fun part of the day.
