What Custom Vanity Cabinetry Includes
A custom bathroom vanity from Cobbitty Grove is designed around your bathroom layout, basin preferences, and storage needs. Here is what a typical project includes:
- Single or double basin configurations sized to your bathroom and household. Double basins reduce the morning queue. Single basins maximise bench and storage space in smaller rooms.
- Drawer and cupboard storage configured for what you actually keep in the bathroom: toiletries, hairdryers, cleaning products, towels, and first aid supplies
- Wall-hung or floor-standing options depending on your design preference and bathroom floor plan. Wall-hung vanities create a floating look and make floor cleaning easier. Floor-standing units provide additional storage depth.
- Mirror cabinetry with internal shelving for medications, skincare, and items you want accessible but hidden
- Wet-area rated materials including moisture-resistant substrates, sealed edges, and finishes that handle daily humidity without warping, peeling, or discolouring
- Benchtop options in stone, engineered surfaces, or solid surface materials, with undermount or above-counter basin integration
- Soft-close hardware on every drawer and door for quiet use during early mornings and late nights
Vanity Styles We Build
Cobbitty Grove builds vanities across a range of styles to suit different bathroom designs:
Contemporary vanities feature clean lines, handleless drawers or slim-profile handles, and matte or gloss 2pac finishes. These suit modern bathrooms in newer Macarthur homes where the aesthetic is minimal and streamlined.
Shaker-profile vanities use a framed door design with a routed panel detail. They work well in transitional bathrooms where the style sits between classic and contemporary. Shaker vanities are popular in Southern Highlands homes where the interior leans toward a heritage or farmhouse feel.
Timber-feature vanities incorporate natural timber drawer fronts, open shelving, or a timber frame combined with painted cabinetry. These suit bathrooms where warmth and texture are priorities.
Floating vanities are wall-mounted with no visible legs or plinth. They create a sense of space in smaller bathrooms and make floor maintenance easier. Floating vanities require appropriate wall framing, which our team assesses during the consultation.
Regardless of style, every vanity is built to your bathroom’s exact dimensions. No filler panels, no awkward gaps, no compromise on storage.
Common Bathroom Problems Custom Vanities Solve
If any of these frustrations sound familiar, a custom vanity can address them:
Not enough storage
Builder vanities prioritise appearance at handover over long-term function. Custom drawer inserts, internal dividers, and purpose-built compartments give every item a place.
Single basin for a shared bathroom
Upgrading to a double-basin vanity eliminates the morning traffic jam. If your plumbing supports it, we design the vanity to accommodate two basins with independent storage zones.
Dated finishes
Laminate doors, chrome handles from 2015, and chipped benchtops age a bathroom quickly. New 2pac or timber-feature doors, quality hardware, and a stone benchtop bring the room back to a standard that matches the rest of your home.
Poor fit
Standard vanities leave gaps against walls, sit too high or too low for comfortable use, and waste space behind doors that swing open. Custom cabinetry is built to your room’s measurements and your preferred bench height.
How the Process Works
Vanity cabinetry projects follow the same structured process as all Cobbitty Grove joinery:
1. Consultation We visit your bathroom (or review your builder’s plans for a new home) to measure the space, check plumbing locations, and discuss your basin preference, storage needs, and style direction.
2. Design Our designers create a vanity layout with 3D visuals showing the unit in your bathroom. You choose door profiles, colours, handles, benchtop material, and basin type. We adjust the design until it matches your requirements.
3. Manufacturing The vanity is built at our Smeaton Grange workshop using moisture-resistant substrates and wet-area rated finishes. Every component is manufactured to your approved specifications.
4. Installation Our team installs the vanity and coordinates with your plumber for basin and tap connections. Most vanity installs are completed within a day.
Updating more than the bathroom? We also design and build built-in wardrobes and other custom joinery to match across your home.
Vanities as Part of a Whole-Home Project
Many Cobbitty Grove clients add vanity cabinetry to a larger project. When you are already renovating your kitchen or laundry, including the bathroom vanity in the same scope gives you consistent materials and finishes across rooms, and reduces the overall cost of running separate projects.
Other rooms that pair well with vanity work include built-in wardrobes for bedrooms and linen cupboards for hallways. If you are thinking about upgrading multiple rooms, we can quote them together.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you replace my single-basin vanity with a double?
In most cases, yes. If your bathroom has the wall space and plumbing can be extended, we design the vanity to fit two basins with independent storage. Our team assesses feasibility during the consultation.
What materials are safe for bathroom cabinetry?
We use moisture-resistant MDF substrates, sealed edges, and finishes rated for wet-area use. These materials handle daily humidity, splashing, and temperature changes without warping or peeling.
How long does a vanity project take?
A standalone vanity project typically takes three to five weeks from design approval to installation. If part of a larger renovation, it is built and installed within the broader project timeline.
Can the vanity match cabinetry in other rooms?
Yes. We use the same door profiles, handles, and colour options across all rooms. Many clients match their bathroom vanity to their kitchen or laundry cabinetry for a consistent look throughout the home.
