These popular countertop materials are sure to inspire a bathroom remodel. 01 of 18 Concrete Bathroom Countertops Natural concrete countertops make an interestingly imperfect statement that balances sleek furnishings. This mottled, slightly pitted concrete countertop is a contemporary surface for a stained floating vanity, stainless-steel backsplash, and polished chrome faucets. This modern design is a double vanity, equipped with two drawers, two faucets, and one connecting sink basin. 02 of 18 Beige Marble Countertops Marble introduces a sense of richness well-suited to an elegant bathroom remodel. Create a serene scene by choosing a marble countertop a shade lighter or darker than adjacent cabinetry. Although this marble countertop partners with the vanity and backsplash for a cohesive outlook, the countertop's extra-thick edge allows it to stand out as an exceptional detail. 19 Small-Bathroom Vanity Ideas That Pack in Plenty of Storage 03 of 18 Limestone Bathroom Countertops Polished limestone countertops set modern bathroom vanities aglow. They supply a luxurious look, a scintillating shine, and subtle patterns that complement nickel and chrome fixtures, weathered silvered finishes, and light-toned cabinets. Note: Limestone is softer than granite and marble and may need sealing when used as a countertop in busy bathrooms. 04 of 18 Glass Bathroom Countertops Glass bathroom countertops amplify light and expand spatial perceptions—especially when paired with a see-through vanity and translucent vessel sink. This makes them optimal for small bathroom vanities. Surf colors and a raised installation give this glass configuration a pumped-up presence; exposed plumbing and a statuesque faucet contribute contemporary contours. 05 of 18 Black Marble Countertops As timeless and classy as a tuxedo, black marble countertops shine when paired with white vanity cabinets. Opt for polished marble if you want a high-end look; honed or tumbled finishes work nicely in casual, country, and cottage bathrooms. Consider this bold choice for your next bathroom remodel. 06 of 18 Corian Solid Surface Nonporous, stain-resistant, and durable, Corian is an inexpensive countertop idea. It's a solid surface material ideally suited to bathroom applications. Your color choice is integrated throughout the material, which ensures durability. These dreamy cream countertops provide color and texture without detracting from the bathroom's quirky character. 07 of 18 Green Marble Bathroom Countertops Honed green marble creates bathroom countertops with an old-world outlook. Green marble countertops boast significant veins in various shades that work well with weathered patinas and antique accessories. Its deep tones complement metal accents, such as black wrought-iron sconces, copper chandeliers, and bronze faucets. 08 of 18 Travertine Bathroom Countertops Travertine is a sedimentary rock generally formed by mineral spring deposits, which give the stone its characteristic pattern. Honed travertine countertops remain popular for their low-reflective qualities that play nicely with tiled accents and textured wall coverings. 09 of 18 Terrazzo Bathroom Countertops Keep your eye on this trend in bathroom countertops. Midcentury modern design plays the perfect host to terrazzo atop this dark-stained vanity. Black flecks in the countertop complement the wood, while the lighter tones align with the white walls. As a crowning touch to this stunning countertop material, a high-arc curved faucet embraces artistic and functional qualities. 10 of 18 Brown Granite Countertops Brown granite countertops with creamy beiges and coffee-hued specks prevent a furniture-like vanity from appearing heavy. The countertop material is dark enough to pop against white wainscoting yet stays in sync with this bathroom's other surfaces, including rich wood flooring and grasscloth-covered upper walls. Clear containers and vases don't compete with the busy bathroom countertop surface. How to Clean Granite 11 of 18 Laminate Bathroom Countertops Laminate countertops are an inexpensive countertop idea, often sold in readymade versions at home centers. They're affordable, durable and available in a wide variety of solid colors, stone looks, and abstract designs.

Laminate is the way to go if you're looking for budget-friendly bathroom vanities with many options. 12 of 18 White Granite Bathroom Countertops These white granite countertops captivate thanks to thick gray veining with distinctive spots and lines. Unlike earth-tone granites, white granite is a clean, crisp surface that lightens a space, works nicely with dark cabinets, and complements polished chrome fixtures and hardware. This style of granite countertop is more suitable for bathrooms, as opposed to darker granite you may find in the kitchen. 21 White Bathroom Ideas for a Sparkling Space 13 of 18 Black Concrete Countertops Concrete countertops are a versatile option that easily fits your needs and style preferences. Dyed black and molded with an integrated sink, this concrete countertop adds a modern note. The material complements gray cabinetry, hides spills and stains, and mirrors the industrial look of nearby exposed brick. 14 of 18 Tile Bathroom Countertops This double vanity isn't short on style. Countertops shaped from handmade tiles bring artisanal soul to Mediterranean, Tuscan, and Spanish bathrooms. Thick grout lines (sealed to protect against moisture and mildew) showcase irregular contours and draw attention to hand-painted wall tiles that introduce color and pattern. 15 of 18 Gray Marble Countertops Gray, a neutral that continues to grow in popularity, deserves a place in your bathroom. Gray marble countertops complement most color schemes and beautifully echo the silvery tones of faucets and mirrored glass. These homeowners tripled the material's impact by trimming the countertop with a deep marble apron, adding a marble backsplash, and framing a mirror in gray marble tiles. 16 of 18 Painted Wood Countertops Tight budget? No problem! Here's a great inexpensive countertop idea. You can enjoy a custom countertop with a little ingenuity and a little more elbow grease.
