If you’ve been shopping to price out your renovation already, chances are you’ve visited the hardware store.
If you’ve been walking the aisles of your nearest big-box hardware store, you’ve likely seen a lot of cheaply made vanities — but it may not have been obvious.
The products available at the big-box stores have served to create a certain perceived price point on things like bathroom vanities.
Unfortunately, the quality of these products often doesn’t meet the average consumer’s expectations.

Bathroom Vanity Calgary – What are my options?
Here’s the thing about bathroom vanities: different types of wood have different moisture ratings. We all know the main risk to any wooden or particle board fixtures (or anything porous, really) in a bathroom — moisture. There’s bound to be plenty of steam in the bathroom you’re renovating, and certain types of wood are able to withstand those conditions.
The other variable that will affect whether your vanity can withstand years of moisture is the coating or veneer on the wood.
Compare an appropriate wood coated in a good quality veneer, with a cheap particle board with a cheap veneer, and the difference is obvious: you’ll be using the former for years to come, while the latter, within a couple of years, will be swollen from the moisture.
Not worth the savings upfront, right?
While We’re At It, About That Sink
Even more important than a high quality vanity is a sink that can withstand what the average homeowner will put it through on a regular basis. Those cheap vanities we mentioned? They also come with cheap sinks. Many are not even CSA-certified!
What happens in bathroom sink? For one thing, a lot of very hot water — shaving, for instance. With very hot water running over the cheap push-drain, the plastic quickly degrades and soon it’s prone to cracking.
We install chrome-coated brass drains that will last 15-20 years. It’s worth the headache you’ll save to have a working sink in your fancy new bathroom.

Bathroom Reno Reviews
Kassandra A.
In 2019 we hired a contractor to finish our basement. He made a complete mess of everything and left problem after problem for us to fix.
Now that we have saved up enough money to finally finish the bathroom we called Instant Plumbing. Greg & his associate were fantastic.
He quickly figured out a plan to salvage the materials we already had on hand and finished the installation where others had told me everything would have to be ripped out to make it work.
I am so so thrilled with the work they did, and to top it off they came in under budget.
I will never call a different plumbing service and definitely recommend Instant Plumbing if there’s anything you want done right the first time around.

Instant Plumbing is my first call and only call. They are always fantastic. They do quality work and fix it right. No shortcuts. I trust them 100%.
They have installed bathrooms, busted concrete to lay new sewer pipe, installed HVAC systems, replaced hot water tanks and almost everything else under the sun that a plumbing company does.
I first called Instant Plumbing about 8 years ago when several plumbing companies couldn’t fix or understand the on demand heating I had in one of my rental units.
Since then I’ve used them exclusively on all my rental properties and on my personal home
