Bathroom countertops, vanities & showers.
Custom vanity tops, shower surrounds, and tub decks — single slabs sized to the cabinetry and cut for undermount sinks, in real Connecticut bathrooms.
Choosing a vanity top
A slab vanity top has no grout lines.
A tiled vanity top is a grid of small pieces with grout between them, and the grout is the part that stains, cracks and has to be resealed. A top cut from one slab has none of that, because there is nothing to join.
- One piece
- Most vanities are small enough to come out of a single slab, so the finished top has no joints anywhere on it. Nothing to scrub along, nothing to reseal.
- Where a seam goes
- A long double vanity can run past the length of a slab. When it does we place the seam where it reads least, usually behind a faucet or at a sink, and we tell you where it will be before we cut.
- Undermount sinks
- The opening is cut and polished so the bowl mounts underneath. There is no metal rim sitting on the surface to catch water, and the counter wipes straight into the sink.
- Shower walls and tub decks
- The same idea scales up. Full slab shower walls replace a wall of tile and grout with two or three pieces of stone, which is why they stay clean with far less work.
- Upkeep by material
- Porcelain and quartz are non-porous and never need sealing. Granite, marble and quartzite are natural stone and take a sealer periodically. None of them have grout.
- Remnants
- A vanity is small, so a remnant of something expensive will often cover it. It is the one place in the house where a high-end stone stays within reach.
