The Pros and Cons of Granite for Your Ottawa Bathroom Vanity

You’ve decided to remodel your Ottawa bathroom – awesome. One of the many decision you’ll face is what material to use for your vanity top.  Let’s assume you’re leaning towards granite and examine some pros and cons of granite vanity countertops.

Beautiful, durable, and available in a variety of style of colors, there’s a granite slab to match just about any design that you can imagine for your bathroom vanity.

The strength and durability of a granite bathroom vanity is probably a close second to the “look” of granite as being the main advantage to granite vanities.  Nearly indestructible, granite resists chipping, fading, scratching and marking. It stands up to some of the harshest conditions, wears well, and develops a character of its own over time.

The cons? In the sort term a granite vanity is more expensive. But at the same time a granite vanity will last longer and add to the “wow” factor when reselling your home.

Another con is a practical one – granite vanities will need sealed initially and once a year. This is simple maintenance, but maintenance nonetheless.
