hi daisy, i ordered a custom one from aspenn furniture which included space for my washing machine too!

Hi there, yes, a bit of an issue. Was a height specified on a design somewhere, or has the fitter arbitrarily decided on the height? We would normally leave this as an "on site" decision for the fitter to consult the client and agree a height prior to creating/modifying boxing & structure to suit. That should have happened quite early in the build in the case of recessed cabinets. As Sarah correctly indicates, there is no "standard" height and normally there is quite a bit of flexibility, unless you have runs of furniture which include tall units which may set an "upper edge" limit. You don't have this, so now you have a dilemma. While there is no absolute way to determine a "correct" height, as a rough rule of thumb we would get the tallest & shortest adult using the bathroom and measure "floor to eye" height of both, then pick the midpoint between these two heights as the rough centreline for the mirror, then tweak to taste. My gut says yours is slightly higher than optimal, especially given room height. As to what to do - reworking it now is a not insignificant undertaking, as you would need to remove a couple of rows of tiles (to one tile each side of the opening), recut the board, possibly add in some additional noggins, possibly tweak the electrics (if it has been left with insufficient float), then recut and retile the "awkward" bit. Any fitter is going to strenuously resist doing that at this late stage! If he is accurate to drawing, then it would be reasonable for them to expect you to pay for the privilege of such a change. If the design shows the mirror lower, you have a case to tell them to put it right. But expect resistance! If there is no design and you have not been clear that you wish to be involved in setting the height, then you're into a grey "he says, she says" situation, and have to decide how far you want to try and push it. Best of luck!

I have had a look. I am about to do a bathroom and am going to use Lusso Stone. Prices are comparable. Lusso stone has great reviews. I would also recommend Tikamoon for vanities if you like real wood and they have some stunning worktop sinks. I have used Tikamoon for a previous bathroom and was very happy with their quality and service.

There is a big difference between two careful adults (we are) and a family bathroom with children. I chose oak because it is only the two of us using the bathroom. If you need something more hardwearing then go with Daisy's suggestion. :)). One size does not fit all. It depends on how careful you are, who is using the bathroom, how long you expect it to last, a whole host of factors.
