Hello everyone, we are currently building our house with Town & Country and have chosen the standard plumbing package.
Is it possible to install matching vanity units under all the sinks, or do you have to buy everything as a complete set?
It should be possible, right? You would just need to pay attention to the dimensions, which I think are fairly standard?
Has anyone done this before? If so, could you please respond and maybe share some pictures?

Best regards

I can only recommend asking a kitchen specialist. Many manufacturers also focus on bathroom furniture. These are usually much more affordable than sanitary ware dealers, almost fully customizable, and very sturdy (just like a kitchen).

For my 2m (6.6 ft) tall, wall-mounted, custom-made unit, a bathroom dealer wanted more than 4,500, while the kitchen specialist offered it for around 1,800, including installation.

But even the latter are prices for which you can go to a carpenter, where it is always more customized without really being more expensive.

No idea. Bathroom furniture, especially vanity units, is a more specialized topic than a standard cabinet. My local carpenter would probably have charged more.

I would argue that you won’t find a 2-meter (6.5 feet) wall-mounted base cabinet, including installation, for less than 3,000 at a custom cabinetmaker.

It’s never quite easy to compare. Our cabinet is only 1.6m (5.3 ft). The design with a recessed panel, etc. was mine. The price was about 1600 EUR (around $1,700) including delivery and installation. But there were also competing offers for twice that price. (Sorry for the poor photo)

This is really high quality! I like it very much!

Maybe the carpenters in my area aren’t the right ones, or they’re so busy that they charge outrageous prices (4.5m (15 feet) wardrobe for 17,000 🤨).
1,600 for the beautiful piece including installation seems more than fair to me!
