Re: Bathroom reno

Welcome to the Workshop community @Bathroomreno. Many thanks for your question, I'd be happy to assist.

 

I've enquired with several of our vanity manufacturers and the maximum sized unit would be 1500mm. Our vanities come pre-assembled and a flat pack option is not something we currently offer. Was the old vanity a double sink and if so would you consider replacing it with two separate vanity units?

 

If you would like to upload some images of the bathroom and a drawing with the dimensions I'm sure our helpful community members will have some great suggestions.

Thanks for the photo @Bathroomreno.

 

Let me tag clever and creative community members @Mathy, @redracer01 and @2Belindas to see if they might like to kick off the discussion for you about replacing your bathroom vanity. 

 

If you'd like more suggestions for your renovation beyond replacing your vanity, we would recommend you share a floorplan or sketch of your bathroom with dimensions, and let us know what your goals and/or issues with the current bathroom. 

 

Thanks again,

 

Jason

Re: Bathroom reno

Hello @Bathroomreno 

 

Due to depth issues if you do buy flat pack cabinets please make sure they are 500 deep, otherwise you will need to modify these cabinets to make them fit. Which is why I recommended the diy video for the vanity. Below is my version of it with chalk finished doors and caroma liano nexus basins. Floor standing to avoid all that wall mounting business.

 

Cheers!
