When planning your bathroom remodel in Phoenix, there are a few tips to keep in mind when starting off.

  • How much space is available?
  • What are the colors and/or materials that you have or are using in the rest of the bathroom?
  • Know your water route. Will the water be coming from a vanity mounted faucet or from the wall?
  • Do you prefer more of a smaller or pedestal look or do you need addition and unique storage space?

Bathroom vanities can be purchased pre-made or are available to custom fit your bathroom. Maybe you prefer a taller than normal vanity to accommodate your height. Maybe a deeper vanity will provide the extra room that you have always wished you had for storage. Do you prefer a simple sleek look for your cabinetry? You have options to choose from, so spend some time exploring what is available. From raised panel or decorative doors to custom toe kicks and hardware option as far as the eye can see, your bathroom should be designed around your personality. There are many variables that can be taken into consideration during the planning phase. Another of which, is your budget. Knowing the budget for your bathroom remodel in Phoenix will help you in determining what manufacturer and even extra options that you can factor in to your vanity, such as soft close drawers, specialty storage pull-outs for shampoos or hidden compartments for your necessities.

“Looking to stay on the cutting edge of bathroom design? Consider the new vanity super-sink base cabinet option from Diamond. With a pull-out wastebasket, racks on the doors for hair dryers and notions, a heavy-duty cabinet mat and an inside corner shelf for organization, it offers the ultimate in convenience.” suggests Ferguson – Bath, Kitchen and Lighting Gallery. It all boils down to your wants and needs for your new bathroom vanity. You can choose to go as elaborate as you can imagine or as simple as basically needed. Vanities are available as corner units, curved or straight front, wall hung/floating, and single versus double sink options. Knowing your plumbing flow can assist in your choice as well, especially if you are not planning on the cost of relocating plumbing lines to fit the new vanity configuration. For example, if your water flow is currently up through the floor, you may not want to choose a vanity that will require it to flow floating from the wall or from one side of the bathroom to be in a corner vanity in the new bathroom layout.

When shopping for your bathroom vanity it is important to bring samples of the colors and materials that are in your bathroom now or the other materials that you may have already chosen. This way, a designer can assist you in matching your cabinetry with your tile or other accessories to bring the perfect look of your room together.
