Vanity Top Buying Guide

A vanity top must match the cabinet, basin style and tapware layout. Treat the cabinet dimensions and manufacturer drawings as the starting point before selecting material or colour.

Choose the right type

• Integrated tops combine the basin and top in one piece for a straightforward layout.
• Slab tops allow above-counter or under-counter basins but need planned cut-outs.
• Ceramic, stone, solid-surface, concrete-look and other materials differ in weight, appearance and care needs.

Measure before you order

Record the finished dimensions and compare them with the product drawing. Check:

• Exact cabinet width and depth
• Required overhang against finished walls
• Basin, waste and tap-hole positions
• Clearance to mirrors, splashbacks and wall-mounted tapware

Check compatibility and inclusions

• Confirm the top is approved for the selected cabinet
• Do not cut until the basin and tapware templates are confirmed
• Check whether cut-outs and tap holes are factory-made or site-made
• Confirm sealing and support requirements with the fabricator or installer

Product inclusions and installation requirements vary. Use the individual product page and supplied documentation as the final reference. If information is missing, contact our team before ordering.

Care and maintenance

Use cleaners suitable for the specific material, wipe standing water and avoid heat, impact and abrasive products. Natural or engineered surfaces may have special sealing instructions.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use any top on an existing vanity?

Only when the dimensions, support, plumbing and fixing method are compatible.

Are basin and tap holes pre-cut?

It varies. Read the product specification and confirm before ordering or fabrication.

Why do colour samples vary?

Lighting, screen settings and natural pattern variation can affect appearance. View a physical sample where possible.
