Bathroom Vanity vs. Built In

Shelbie Ammirati
hace 6 años
Hi!

I am trying to get an idea of which is more cost friendly. I am trying to save money where I can since we are building our new house but can't decide what is a better price. I've been searching online for vanities and find it hard to imagine that they are the cheaper route. Can someone tell me what the built in cabinets normally run from?

My guest bathroom is 48" for the vanity and the master bathroom will have an 81" vanity.

Thank you!

    Shelbie-I'm in Cape Coral and just redid two vanities in my master and guest baths. I used kitchen cabinets from Kitchen Cabaret in Fort Myers (ask for Andrew and tell him Kathy Wright sent you) to get exactly the configuration I was going for. The 30" vanity in my guest bathroom was a cream painted vanity with an 18" sink base and a 12" drawer base. I found a quartz remnant for $275 (fabricated and installed) and a sink and faucet for another $250. All in, it was about $1500 for that vanity. My master bath vanity was 72", two 30" drawer bases, a 1" filler, and a 12" drawer base. The 73" granite slab was from Sunmac (Nicole is awesome to work with), that cost a little over $1,000, including two sinks, fabrication and installation. It also included a cap for my pony wall and threshold for the shower) and the Moen faucets were $125 each. Total for that vanity was a little over $2400. I was able to get exactly the configuration I wanted with the exact tops I wanted and didn't have to settle for Home Depot quality. Hope this helps!

      Not sure where you are located, but a pre-built one will range from 600-3,000 based on those dimensions. They include the stone, and the sink, so you wouldn't have to incur additional costs. Sometimes, they may even include the faucets, but they are typically Chinese faucets and pretty Blah.


      Custom Built ones, can be double or sometimes maybe even triple that price, for just the cabinet. You would need to buy your own sink, and unless you have extra material left from maybe your kitchen, you would need to purchase a full slab of stone for your vanities. Some places sell half a slab, and some stone fabricators may sometime have extra left over material, which they may sell to you. Now, you must also factor in that the cost of fabricating and installing this stone will be added on to this too.


      If you're on a tight budget, pre-built may be a solution. If later on (like in 5 years) you get more money, or bore with it, you can rip it out, and do your custom one.


      Now, if this is your dream home, and can afford to go custom, I highly encourage you to do so because the quality, your specifics needs, and finishes are catered to you.

      Unless you're going to be moving soon, use something else. The pre-packaged stuff from the big box stores all come from China. It won't hold up well past about three or four years down the road.
