Professional Bathroom Vanity Installation by MB9 Australia Pty Ltd

A Small Upgrade That Changes the Entire Bathroom

Every time someone asks whether bathroom vanity installation is a “big deal,” I remember a homeowner in Chatswood who told me, “I thought a vanity was just a box with a sink. Then MB9 installed one that actually fits my life.”
It made me laugh because it’s exactly what most people realise after they upgrade.

A new vanity seems like a small item, but it shapes how the entire bathroom looks, feels and functions. Whether it’s in a compact ensuite in Newtown, a family bathroom in Ryde, or a modern apartment in Waterloo, the right vanity transforms daily routines—better storage, cleaner lines, and a space that finally feels organised.

At MB9 Australia, we provide professional bathroom vanity installation across Sydney, backed by licensed trades, precise workmanship and a renovation-standard finish that integrates seamlessly with your existing bathroom or your full renovation plans.

Why Homeowners Choose to Upgrade Their Bathroom Vanity

More Storage, Less Clutter

If you’ve ever had a bathroom where you can’t find the toothpaste without moving a hairdryer, you know exactly why vanities matter. Sydney homes—especially terraces in Balmain, apartments in Mascot, or older homes in Lindfield—often suffer from layout issues or limited storage.

A well-installed vanity solves that instantly.

Improved Functionality

Your old vanity might be:

  • too low

  • too small

  • water-damaged

  • chipped

  • unstylish

  • or installed before you even moved in

A new vanity gives you the comfort and usability your bathroom has been missing.

A Fast, High-Impact Upgrade

Compared to a full bathroom renovation, installing a new vanity is one of the quickest ways to modernise a bathroom—without going through weeks of demolition.

Perfect for Ensuites, Family Bathrooms and Guest Bathrooms

Sydney homes rarely have bathrooms that are the “perfect size.”
Vanities that are custom-designed or properly selected for your layout make the entire room more practical.

Why MB9 Is the Right Choice for Bathroom Vanity Installation in Sydney

We’re Renovators, Not Just Installers

A lot of people can attach a vanity.
Very few can install one properly—meaning:

  • correct plumbing height

  • sealed properly

  • no gaps that trap moisture

  • wall fixing done to code

  • alignment perfect

  • drawers opening without hitting the doorframe

  • stone tops level

  • tiles protected

As a licensed Kitchen Renovator, Bathroom Renovator, Contractor, and Construction Company, we approach vanity installation with the same precision we use in full renovations.

We Understand Sydney Homes

We’ve installed vanities in:

  • terrace houses in Newtown, Glebe, Annandale

  • apartments in Wollstonecraft, Lane Cove, Chatswood, Mascot

  • family homes in Turramurra, Pymble, Baulkham Hills

  • beachside suburbs like Coogee, Maroubra, Bondi

Each property type has different challenges—wall construction, tight access, plumbing limitations, strata rules.
We handle all of it.

Licensed Plumbers & Certified Work

Vanity installation involves plumbing. That means your home deserves someone who is fully qualified.

All plumbing work is done by licensed trades, compliant with NSW Fair Trading requirements.

Full Service If You Need It

Some homeowners want only the vanity installation.
Others also want:

  • new tapware

  • a new basin

  • a new mirror

  • fresh tiling

  • LED mirror cabinet

  • full bathroom renovation

We can scale the work to your needs.

Types of Bathroom Vanities We Install

Creates a clean, modern look with more visible floor space.

Floor-Standing Vanities

A classic choice for homes in Ryde, Lane Cove, Chatswood and many Northern Suburbs.
Offers maximum storage and stability.

Custom-Made Vanities

For homeowners who want something unique or tailored.
We can help with:

  • custom widths

  • timber or engineered stone tops

  • integrated basins

  • soft-close drawers

  • special finishes

Double Vanities

Slimline Vanities

Designed for tight bathrooms or older apartment layouts where space is limited.

How Our Bathroom Vanity Installation Process Works

1. On-Site Assessment

We inspect the bathroom to identify:

  • plumbing position

  • wall construction (gyprock, brick, concrete)

  • current drainage configuration

  • overall layout

  • existing waterproofing

  • electrical position for lighting or mirrors

This ensures the new vanity fits perfectly—no guesswork.

2. Vanity Selection or Custom Design

We help you choose a vanity that suits your bathroom style and your daily routine.

Things we consider together:

  • size and depth

  • storage needs

  • style: modern, coastal, minimalist, traditional

  • finish: timber, gloss white, matte black, polyurethane

  • wall-hung vs. floor-standing

  • top material: stone, acrylic, solid surface

  • integrated vs. above-counter basin

  • plumbing compatibility

We’ve seen many homeowners buy a vanity online that doesn’t fit their plumbing—so we prevent that before it happens.

3. Removal of the Old Vanity

We disconnect plumbing safely (so nothing floods), remove the old unit, and prepare the wall or floor.

In older terrace homes (like Glebe or Newtown) there may be hidden issues—rotted timber, old pipes, or damaged tiles.
We fix these properly.

4. Plumbing Adjustments

Sometimes the vanity requires moving:

  • water points

  • waste outlet

  • mixer height

  • drainage alignment

We handle all adjustments so the new vanity fits cleanly.

5. Installation

This is where the detail matters.
We ensure:

  • perfect levelling

  • strong wall fixing

  • sealed joints that prevent future water damage

  • drawers and doors aligned

  • plumbing connected and tested

  • no exposed gaps

Vanities installed well last for years.
Vanities installed poorly cause mould, leaks and expensive repairs.

6. Finishing Touches

We help with:

  • mounting mirrors

  • LED cabinets

  • splashback tiles

  • new tapware

  • silicone finishing

  • wall patching if required

Everything gets cleaned and tested before we leave.

Common Mistakes Homeowners Make With Vanity Installation (And How We Avoid Them)

1. Buying a Vanity That Doesn’t Fit the Plumbing

Online vanity sizing rarely tells the full story.
We check all plumbing heights and configurations first.

2. Installing Without Proper Sealing

We use high-grade sealants and waterproofing techniques to prevent moisture issues.

3. Incorrect Height

A vanity that’s too low or too high becomes uncomfortable quickly.
We set the height to suit your home and your family.

4. Not Accounting for Drawer Swing or Door Clearance

We check all clearances before drilling or fixing anything.

5. Not Reinforcing the Wall

Especially important for floating vanities in older homes.
