Let us show you just how simple it is, as we walk you through the steps of designing and ordering your own gorgeous custom solid surface vanity top.

You can also save your design to your account or share it to get another opinion.
Navigation from the SolidSurface.com Homepage
You can find a link to the New Vanity Configurator on the top menu bar of any of the SolidSurface.com pages. Mouse over, or click on, “Custom Vanity Tops” at the top to open the program.
Navigation through the Custom Vanity Top Designer Tool
When the program opens, an image of a bathroom with a vanity countertop with a backsplash appears. Click the “BUILD MY VANITY COUNTERTOP” button to begin navigating your way through the steps. As you make your selections and move through the program, that image will change into the vanity top you are designing. You will use the column on the right to make your selections such as size, color, sink options, and more.
Use the “Previous” and “Next” buttons to navigate through the steps, you can return to previous options without losing your progress. At the end of the steps you will get a summary of all your selections which can be edited once more before moving to checkout. Many steps include a “MORE INFO” button which will provide any additional information you might need to aid your selection process.
You can return to the first step and select “BUILD MY VANITY COUNTERTOP” at any time to begin again or click the “Save for Later.” icon in the top left. Here you can create an account, or log into your account, to save the design and come back to it at a later time.
Keep in mind, that if at any time during the design process you have questions or concerns, you can always talk with a Vanity Top Specialist by calling 888-715-3007, Option 4.
Width and Depth of Your Custom Vanity Top
Choose the width (or length) and depth of your vanity top by clicking the +/- buttons to the width and depth you need in inches. Or, you can type it in the box between the +/- buttons. The standard depth of a vanity top is 22”, measured from the front edge to the back edge. Once you are satisfied adjusting your width and depth, click “Next.”
Choosing your color and brand
Select your color from the pop-out list of options. You can use the “Filters” to search for a specific top, or filter the list by brand, color family, price or material. When you select a color, the vanity top will display a mock-up of how this will look on your cabinet. Once you’ve selected your brand and color, click “Next.”
Backsplash configuration and edge detail
In this section, you have the ability to choose the type of backsplash you want for your vanity top, as well as the left, right and front edge style.
First select whether you are looking for no backsplash, back only, back and left, back and right, or enclosed with back and both sides.
From here, you’ll select your edge detail. Choose from no lamination, front only, or front and the sides of your choosing.
From here you can select your backsplash style from loose or coved. The first is to select a 4″ Loose Backsplash. This means that the backsplash will come with your vanity top, but will need to be attached with adhesive (usually silicone) by whomever is installing it.
The second option is to select a 4” Coved Backsplash. A “coved” backsplash provides a seamless, coved (slightly curved), appearance where the top surface and the backsplash meet. Coved backsplashes are attached to the vanity top prior to shipping. There is a modest extra charge for the coved backsplash since it requires extra fabrication. The advantage of a coved backsplash is that it is easier to clean and gives a more seamless appearance between backsplash and top.
Lastly, you’ll then get the option to select your edge profile. There are many styles to choose from to match any aesthetic such as bullnose, roundover, square, and more.
Sink Options
First, choose whether you want a sink cutout at all, and then whether you’ll be providing your own sink (we’ll offer to cut the opening), or choose from one of our many available sink styles.
Countertop Edge Buildup Above Sink
Edge buildup above a sink can have a dramatic effect on how the vanity top looks. The images displayed do a great job in showing the difference. Toggle back and forth between the two selections of “No Buildup ½” thick” and “1” Thick Buildup” to see which you prefer. When satisfied with your selection, click “Next.”
Select Sink Placement from Left to Right
While it is common to have the sink centered on the vanity top, here you may want to think about where you want the sink in relation to your cabinet door openings below the sink. Or, perhaps you want more room on one side or the other of the sink.
If your design has:
- 1 sink and you would like it centered on your vanity top, choose the “Center On Vanity Top” option.
- 1 sink and you would like to have more space on either side of it, or a custom placement, choose “Custom Sink Placement.”
When you choose “Custom Sink Placement,” an option will appear where you can specify the distance in inches from the left edge to the drain center. Once you are satisfied with your selection, hit “Next.”
Choose Faucet Hole Configuration
You may or may not have already chosen what type of faucet you are going to use. If you are replacing a vanity top, you may be re-using the one you already have. Or, possibly, you’ve already purchased a new one for the new vanity top. In either of those circumstances, you’ll want to take a closer look at the faucet design and take measurements to ensure you make the appropriate selections on this screen (i.e., is the center of the outer holes 4″ or 8” apart.)
If you haven’t decided on a faucet yet, you’ll want to make note of what you select so that you can choose an appropriate faucet design that matches your configuration. Once again, if you play around with the selections, you can see how the design changes and determine which type of faucet hole design you need. Note: you will not see a difference on your screen between the 1-⅜” and the 1-½” centered holes. Click “Next” when ready for the next step.
