Bathroom Countertop Ideas

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: DB Mills

There are many bathroom counter top ideas to consider when remodeling your bathroom. A bathroom counter top is a necessity. Considering the humidity and water in the bathroom, what counter top material would be the best?

Wood, as a bathroom counter top material is definitely out. The moisture and humidity associated with the bathroom would rot the wood. Synthetic materials or natural materials not affected by water are the way to go. The most commonly used bathroom countertop materials are plastic laminates, cultured marble, corian and granite.

Plastic laminates are made from melamine decorative paper and combine with phenolic treated kraft paper. They are then bonded under high pressures to particleboard. They come in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and surface gloss. Too much heat can actually damage their surface and they are susceptible to scratches from sharp or abrasive objects.

Cultured marble is a popular bathroom counter top material. It is elegant and comes in a variety of colors. It is made from polyester binding resins, pigment, and crushed marble. It is then molded, trimmed, and polished. Cultured marble bathroom counter top has a waterproof, stain resistant surface. If there is a scratch the cabinetmaker can repair it usually by just sanding and polishing.

Corian is an expensive bathroom counter top material. It is a blend of natural material and acrylic polymer. The surface is smooth and discourages the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew. It is also nonporous which means liquids and stains cannot penetrate the surface. It is easy to clean and maintain.

Granite is an expensive choice for a bathroom counter top. It is elegant and beautiful though. It is very durable, resistant to water but it can be chipped and broken and is difficult to repair. Do not use abrasive cleaning supplies. Acetone such as fingernail polish remover will damage it. Give the bathroom counter top a coat of wax every once in a while.

Another idea is bathroom countertop tile . This is not as popular as the other materials but it is used on occasion. Bathroom counter top tile is an often overlooked counter top material that may fit your needs. If you like the tile look, ceramic tile can be a good choice for your counter top. Ceramic tile comes in a variety of colors, patterns and styles. One advantage is that you can use a tile pattern that is pleasing to the eye no matter what your taste is.

The bathroom counter top is usually customized for each bathroom. The reason is that there are so many colors, patterns and materials to choose from along with so many different dimensions that it is completely impractical to stock any bathroom counter top.

You can choose the counter top material, style and color you want at your local home improvement store or other bathroom supply place. Then, your bathroom cabinets will have to be measured to get the correct dimensions for your counter tops.

I personally like the counter tops that are pre-made that you can choose at most supply stores. These are designed to fit pre-made cabinets that are at the same supply stores. The cutout for the bathroom sink is already made in these counter tops and that makes things much easier.

One of the best reasons for this bathroom counter top idea is the ease of application. These counter tops are usually glued or siliconed down to the cabinets. Sometimes the counter tops are held down by clips. This system saves much time and labor costs and can usually be purchased at a fair price.
