All of these data came from the 2020 US Houzz Bathroom Trends Study, and it only shows how essential bathroom vanity is to such space.

WHAT IS A BATHROOM VANITY?

Today, the bathroom vanity has a combination of sink, countertop, and a mirror. You can put all your bathroom-related items here—shampoo, soaps, tissues, medicines, and many more. Some vanities are very versatile in terms of feature inclusions, such as redesigned lightings, architectural details, more shelving options, and so on. It’s one of the pinnacles of the bathroom, for it’s that one feature that glints to your guests’ eyes.

Vanities can vary in size from 32 inches as it’s the typical height for US houses. Vanities before are only installed on bedrooms, but it also works now on bathrooms. They are made for bathrooms with high traffic shared by any members of the family. With different innovations today, vanities have other customizations depending on the homeowner’s style and creativity.

HOW TO INSTALL A BATHROOM VANITY

Now that you’ve discovered that vanities are one of the highlights of a bathroom, it’s just the right time to install it. Here is the thorough step by step process of installing the bathroom vanity:

Step 1. MAKING MEASUREMENTS. Never rush yourself out on purchasing vanities without taking measurements of your bathroom. There’s no one-size-fits-all bathroom vanity. They are not the same, and the best thing to do is take inch measures.

Step 2. ADJUSTING PLUMBING SYSTEM. Turn everything where the water flows first. If you have an activating system of hot-cold temperatures, shut it off in the meantime. The next thing to do is remove the drain trap, but be very cautious, for it is filled with water.

Step 3. SINK AND VANITY REMOVAL. Before removing the sink and vanity, use tools such as a utility knife to ensure that you never make scratches to the wall. Find those screws and bolts and put them on a specific container. Any assistance might be of great help for this task. 

Step 4. TIME TO DÉCOR. Take this opportunity to fill those holes through wallpaper, apply new flooring or tile whenever possible, and additional light fixtures as well.

Step 5. INSTALLING DRAIN AND FAUCET. Since you already prepped up the things before installing, putting the faucet in the sink is more accessible. Since you’ve made proper adjustments to the pipes, no need to be further frustrated with it. Your drain will better function if you have silicone underneath it to prevent leakage.

Step 6. INSTALLING VANITY AND SINK. The vanity cabinet must essentially come first before the sink. Take the utmost care when doing this to ensure your walls are safeguarded from damages. Next is to determine whether the level is in sync. Finally, find the proper location for your wall studs, attach the cabinet on the walls in the studs with three-inch screws.

Step 7. WRAP UP THE PLUMBING. Use Teflon tape for this final step. You cover the shutoff valves and seal them properly with numerous tight rotations. Next are the hot and cold lines attached to the shutoff valves with the use of a wrench. Install the drain tap onto the sink and the bar for wastes. Lastly, turn the water on and double-check all nooks and crannies for leaks.

TIPS TO REMEMBER BEFORE INSTALLING A BATHROOM VANITY
