How to fix exposed wall after replacing bathroom vanity?

Hi,

does anyone have any suggestions how to fix that tileless spot which we ended up with, after changing a bathroom vanity. Also there are gaps next to and behind the vanity - I was thinking about some sort of trims and silicone to cover those gaps.

Let me know your ideas how could it be fixed without doing a major renovation or tiling.

Re: How to fix exposed wall after replacing bathroom vanity?

Hello @louolu 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your exposed wall.

 

I propose getting tiles that are close to the same colour as those that are already there. I recommend cutting strips and filling in the gap (if possible. If it is still possible to move the vanity out of the way it would be best to do it this way so that the gap can be patched properly. The bottom section may not be perfect, but the goal is to harmonize the surroundings. As for the gap behind the vanity, I believe that it is not that big and can be covered with a gap filler.

 

Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How To Silicone Seal A Bath 

 

Let me call on our experienced members @theDIYedit, @melpag and @Gaylenedrew for their recommendations.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
