Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Can I install a floating vanity in a small bathroom?
Yes! Floating vanities can make small bathrooms feel larger by exposing more floor space and adding under-lighting.
2. Do I need to update plumbing when replacing my vanity?
If your new vanity has the same configuration (sink placement, faucet style), major plumbing changes may not be needed. We’ll inspect and advise during consultation.
3. What’s the best lighting temperature for a bathroom?
For grooming, use 4000K–5000K lighting (cool white). For ambiance, install dimmable fixtures or adjustable color-temperature lights.
4. Do you offer lighted mirror installations?
Yes! We install backlit mirrors, anti-fog mirrors, and models with Bluetooth speakers or touch dimmers.
5. How long does the upgrade process take?
Most vanity and lighting upgrades are completed in 1–3 days, depending on material delivery and any required modifications.
