In the context of bathroom remodeling in the DC Metro area, the materials chosen for vanities, countertops, and flooring significantly influence the aesthetics, durability, and overall cost. For countertops, we often recommend quartz. Quartz countertops are renowned for their durability, low maintenance requirements, and visual appeal.
For flooring, luxury vinyl plank is a highly recommended choice. This material offers a blend of durability, attractiveness, and cost-effectiveness, making it an ideal choice for many bathroom remodels.
When it comes to vanities, there are two primary material options. The first is a full wood box, a higher-priced option offering superior durability and longevity. Conversely, the second option is a medium-density fiberboard (MDF) cabinet. These cabinets are typically less expensive but offer less durability than a full wood box cabinet. If you purchase your vanity from a home improvement store, it’s likely to be an MDF cabinet. In contrast, a cabinet sourced from a specialized distributor is more likely to be a full wood box cabinet.
