Plywood Thickness for Bathroom Countertops

Article Category: Real Estate

Author Name: Ginger Jackson

Installing a new bathroom countertop can be a beautiful addition to any home. You can choose from a wide variety of materials such as vinyl, tile, wood, or bamboo. No matter which material you decide will work best in your bathroom, all of them require the use of plywood underneath the material. The average size of plywood thickness which works well for most countertops is �- inch. Remember however, this is only a basic guideline, and certain materials will work out better when used with different size plywood. Here are some tips to help you determine what thickness is appropriate for your bathroom.

Vinyl is a popular choice for bathroom countertops, because it is very affordable. Furthermore, vinyl is a very flexible material that usually does not require much reinforcement. Also, vinyl does not crack easily, so basically any size of plywood will work when installing a vinyl countertop. If you are having a hard time deciding, then the basic �- inch plywood sheets will work just fine underneath vinyl. Unlike other materials, vinyl does not require the use of joints, which makes it a brilliant choice for your new countertop.

Tile countertops are trickier to install. Generally, they require fiberboard with plywood underneath, for added support. It is recommended that you use the standard �-inch plywood for this countertop, with �- inch fiberboard on top of it. Because of the unstable tiles, this type of countertop requires a very thick backing. If you would rather, you can use two sheets of 5/8- inch plywood instead of the fiberboard on top of the plywood. Both ways will give nice results. Just be certain that your tiles are supported with at least one inch of material underneath. Tile bathroom countertops can be found in many colors and styles to add a beautiful, contemporary look to your bathroom.

Wood and bamboo countertops are probably the easiest to install. The thickness of the plywood depends on each individual's personal preference. The thickness of the countertop will affect the height of the finished product. To make your countertop a little taller, use thicker plywood. Many people use the typical � -inch plywood and stack the layers until the desired height is achieved. 5/8-inch plywood is also an acceptable choice for installing a wood or bamboo countertop. Basically, the size of plywood you use all depends on your desired finished appearance. Bamboo and wood countertops add a country-like feeling to any room.

Investigate the different materials to help you determine which will work best in your bathroom. Carefully weigh the pros and cons of each before beginning your project. When following the above guidelines, you will achieve a beautiful finished result. No matter if you are using fancy tile or another material, plywood choice is an important factor for a luxurious new bathroom countertop.
