Raising the Vanity
Sometimes, homeowners raise their entire vanity, but that would require cutting new holes for the plumbing, which could result in a messy look from the inside.
Instead, Danny uses 1x4s to raise the vanity from the top — extending the vanity to 36 inches tall. He uses 2x4s for the back, middle and side supports; that gives plenty of surface to attach the 1×4 across the front.
He then uses a narrow piece of screen molding to mask the seam where the new 1×4 meets the old vanity.
