Caring for Your Oak Bathroom Vanity

Oak is valued in bathroom vanities for its elegance, durability and water-resistance. To help your recently purchased oak floating vanity retain its beauty for years, adopt these simple care tips:

Daily Care

  • Wipe up spills immediately with a dry cloth to prevent water damage and keep surfaces pristine.

Weekly Cleaning

  • Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to gently clean away dirt and dust, following the wood grain direction.
  • Avoid using abrasive sponges or scouring pads that can scratch the surface.

Harmful Products

  • Do not use cleaners containing bleach, ammonia or acid. These can strip away the protective finish.
  • Look for a wood cleaner specifically formulated for oak. Test on an inconspicuous spot first.

Periodic Treatment

  • Apply a thin coat of high-quality wood polish or oil made for oak every 4-6 months. This nourishes the wood and enhances its natural luster.
  • Consider sealing with a water-resistant product to prevent water stains and damage.

By making oak vanity care a part of your regular bathroom cleaning routine, you can ensure your vanity ages beautifully like a fine wood should. The small investment of time is worth preserving the elegance, character and value of your oak bathroom centerpiece for years to come.

We would love for you to share images of your new vanity and how it enhances your bathroom sanctuary. Let's inspire others who are passionate about cherishing oak's timeless elegance.
