How to replace vanity with smaller footprint?

Giving it a go.

I'm replacing the small, outdated corner vanity with the slimline from Bunnings

CIBO 900mm White Narro Slimline Bathroom Vanity - Bunnings Australia

Understandably the new vanity will not fit the gaps created by removal of the old one due to the footprint, so I need to level the floor. The floor is a wooden subfloor and appears to have waterproofing applied already.

The last piece of old vanity will be removed prior.

What are my options here?

-Sand and cement to level, then apply tiles?

Meaning;

-sand and cement to level

-mortar to apply tiles

-grout to finish

Is there an easier, less expensive way?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @MyOwnHands. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about tiling.

Yes, that’s the way to go. Since you’re dealing with a small area, the cost should be quite minimal – you’ll only need a bag of sand and cement for levelling, some tile adhesive, tiles to cover the exposed area, and grout to finish. All up, it’s a low-cost solution and will give you a solid, professional-looking base for the new vanity. I can’t think of a less expensive way that would still provide a proper, durable finish.

Here's a helpful guide: How to lay floor tiles.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
