2. Wooden Bathroom Countertops Will Never Do

If you have ever wondered why you do not see more wooden countertops in homes and in home improvement stores, there is a reason for that. Between the shower, the sink, and various beauty products, there is a lot of moisture to be found in any bathroom. Wooden countertops are not nearly as resistant to moisture as they should be; this can lead to rotting and discoloration and the porous nature of such a surface can allow nasty germs to hide from even the most vigorous cleaning.

While a wooden bathroom countertop may sound like a thing of beauty, it is not at all a sensible surface for any bathroom counter or sink.

3. Laminate Bathroom Countertops are Inexpensive

If you are looking for a lovely, yet pocketbook friendly option for your vanity bathroom countertop, consider laminate countertops for your bathroom. These are fairly inexpensive options in counter covering but they can be made in any color or made to appear like marble or granite.

One of the main drawbacks to laminate countertops is that they can be damaged by a great deal of heat. This means that if you are one of many people who use styling irons and hair dryers to beautify themselves, you must take great care not to set them down on your bathroom countertop. This can cause irreversible damage that can only be fixed by replacing the entire counter.

One of the beautiful things about laminate bathroom countertops that people fail to realize is that they can be painted-yes, painted! Of course you do not want to use the standard wall paint that you would use in other areas of your home, but there is a specific type of paint that you can use for this purpose. If you have a burn on your countertop and you do not have the money to replace it or you are just ready for a new look, consider the many benefits that painting your laminate bathroom countertops hold.

4. Marble Bathroom Countertops are Glamorous

If you are looking for a more chic, stylish option in bathroom countertops, consider what marble can do for the look of your bathroom. For a bathroom, marble countertops provide a stain resistant, water resistant, rugged, and durable surface for any bathroom. This is great for homes with kids or even homes with just one bathroom that see a lot of traffic throughout the day.

For a bathroom, marble countertops are easy to clean and if they need repairs a little sanding is more than able to do the trick. A clear coat of protective wax can easily be applied to protect your countertop from damage or after sanding and repairs can be made to avoid further damage to the surface.

One of the beautiful things about marble bathroom countertops is that they age very well. Some people have the same marble countertops in their homes that were there when the home was originally built. They age very well and can last up to 100 years or more with proper care!

The main downside to installing marble countertops in the bathroom or anywhere in the home is that marble is extremely heavy, and the fact that it comes in ready-made slabs can make for an awkward carrying process into the home. Be sure to get as much help as possible carrying your marble countertop into the home and lifting it onto the cabinet; your toes will thank you later.
