Guidelines in Building a Custom Bathroom Vanity


A custom bathroom vanity gives your bathroom additional space and can be as creative as you desire. Additionally, the vanity can be crafted by you fairly easily by following the below guidelines.

Take Measurements

Before you start building your vanity, you need to make sure you have accurate measurements of the desired area for the vanity. By getting the most accurate and exact measurements, you can be assured the vanity will fit in the space and no adjustments will have to be made while constructing it.

Decide on Drawers and Hardware

After you’ve designed your vanity on paper, you will want to pick out the hardware. Although you have the option to create drawers on your own, you may want to purchase them already assembled. Whether you craft them yourself or purchase them, be sure that measurements will be compatible with your design. Additionally, decide on the sinks, faucets, mirrors, and other items that would best suit your design.

Get Your Material


There are many different materials to choose from to best suit your other bathroom decor. You can choose from wood, metal, or even a sturdy glass for a more modern look. When you decide what type of material you'd like to use, take your measurements with you to the home improvement store and buy the necessary lengths for your design. Be sure to stock up on a bit of extra material in the event you make a mistake during the vanity's construction.

When It's Time to Assemble


To assemble your vanity, place the base down first and attach it to the wall and floor. Then, add the counter tops and sinks to the top of the base. Last, place any other hardware or items, like drawers and mirrors, into your vanity. Once you have constructed your vanity, be sure to check that every item is functional and make an adjustments as necessary.
