Quartz Vanity Tops
Supply & Installation

Canvastone’s bathroom quartz vanities and vanity tops can provide standards of hygiene that most natural stone surfaces can’t achieve.

A vanity comprises a sink (or two basins) and a countertop surface with storage cabinets beneath. The cabinetry often conceals plumbing, too.

Vanity tops are an important component of bathroom units, typically forming the focal point of the space. They’re generally made from waterproofed or water-resistant materials including solid wood, particle board, plywood, laminate, marble, granite, solid surface material, tiles, or quartz.

Engineered quartz for vanity tops

Bathroom quartz vanity tops contain around 90% quartzite – a natural stone that’s one of nature’s hardest minerals – plus resin and pigment additives.

The natural durability of quartzite makes engineered quartz tougher than granite, while the manufacturing process results in a low level of porosity and high resilience to staining.

Further, quartz bathroom tops are good-looking and easy to clean.

Quartz vanity tops with a sink can be found in many Singapore homes and commercial settings, as can quartz double sink vanity tops, in larger bathrooms.

Advantages of bathroom quartz vanities and vanity tops

Hygienic

One of the main benefits of quartz vanity tops is that they provide a high level of hygiene.

Bathrooms are prone to the formation of toxic mildew and harmful bacteria, caused by the fungi in mould that thrives in damp, warm atmospheres. The minimisation of porosity during the quartz manufacturing process results in a surface that’s more resistant to microbes and mildew than most natural stones.

Singapore’s Building & Construction Authority (BCA) says the effectiveness of quartz against the growth of bacteria makes it particularly suitable for use as surfaces in wet areas like bathrooms.

Low maintenance

Looking after a quartz vanity top is a breeze compared with the degree of maintenance required for natural stone surfaces. Quartz doesn’t need repeated sealing or special cleaning products – you just wipe down your vanity with warm soapy water.

More durable

While some natural stone vanities are vulnerable to scratches, the curing process of engineered quartz vanity tops makes them more able to withstand wear and tear and accidental knocks.

Stain resistant

Engineered quartz is also waterproof and stain-resistant.

Although quartz can be made to look like natural stones such as marble or granite, it won’t provide the uniqueness and natural splendour of the swirling, veined patterns of some natural stones. Nevertheless, some people embrace the idea of a more consistent look.

Canvastone can customise your quartz vanity top

The extensive range of quartz countertops allows for customisation of styles, colours, and patterns. Quartz boasts a wide-ranging selection of colours, including cream, beige, blue, green, orange, and red, as well as white and black.

You can also choose from a range of finishes and edge profiles. Quartz finishes include honed, for a natural, matte look, and polished, for a glossier appearance. Popular edging profiles include the elegant look of a bevelled edge and the sleek appearance of a square edging profile.
