These units make a great addition for both small and large bathrooms. You can place this vanity unit in a corner or against a wall, and it provides plenty of space for all your bathroom essentials. It can also be used as a dressing table or makeup station.

FAQs About Freestanding Vanity Units
1. Should a Freestanding Vanity Unit Be Attached to the Wall?
In most cases, Floor-standing vanity units and basin cabinets should be securely attached to the wall, flush against it, to conceal and protect plumbing. This prevents potential shifts in position, which could strain plumbing joints and lead to leaks.
2. How Much Space Do I Need Around a Floorstanding Vanity Unit?
UK building regulations recommend a minimum of 75cm (29.5in) of space in front of your vanity unit. Measuring your available space ensures you choose a vanity unit that fits and leaves room for other bathroom accessories like the shower, bath, and toilet.
3. How Can I Protect Freestanding Vanity Units from Water?
To safeguard wood-based freestanding vanity units from water damage, ensure regular pipe checks and maintain good bathroom ventilation. Waterproofing options include applying polyurethane sealant on corners, using varnish to create a waterproof film, or using water-resistant paint for added moisture protection.
