Ashbrook Kitchens and Joinery designs and builds bathroom vanities for Huskisson homes, cut to the opening the room gives us. A vanity opening is rarely a catalogue width. The window, the door swing or the shower screen usually takes a hundred millimetres out of it, so the carcass is cut to the dimensions we measure rather than a stock size. We take the waste and tap positions from the plumber, machine the carcass at our workshop in Huskisson, and fit after the wall tiles so the kick lands on the finished floor.

A freestanding unit carries its weight on the floor, so the kick and the scribe are what make it read as built in rather than delivered. We template the wall the end panel butts into and scribe it on install, and we set the kick back far enough that a wet floor never sits against the carcass. Where the floor falls away to a waste, the unit is packed and levelled off the benchtop rather than off the base.
A vanity fails at the edges first, where water works under an unsealed strip at the kick or behind the basin cut out. We use moisture resistant board, seal every machined edge including the cut outs, and fit hinges and runners rated for a wet area so the doors keep hanging true.
A vanity is machined around three fixed points: the tap holes, the waste, and the top of the last tile course. We collect all three from the plumber and the tiler before the CNC runs, and we fit after the wall tiles are on, so the carcass sits against the tiling rather than a bead of silicone.
Ashbrook is owned and run by a qualified builder with more than 15 years on site, which is why the vanity is designed as part of the bathroom instead of ordered once the room is finished. On a small renovation one wrong set out means the carcass is machined again from scratch. Being a few minutes from Huskisson, we check measure after the plasterer and again after the tiler, and fit the kick and the filler panel against the finished floor rather than the slab.
The same vanity work across the rest of the region is on our bathroom vanities page. Where a bathroom is one part of a bigger job, our Huskisson joinery and cabinetry page takes in kitchens, robes and one off cabinetry too.
