Shower door leaks are frustrating because water escaping onto bathroom floors creates slip hazards, damages flooring, and suggests something's wrong despite the shower looking fine when not in use.

Painting your bathroom vanity transforms its appearance for a fraction of replacement costs, but doing it properly requires specific techniques that differ from painting ordinary furniture.

Underfloor heating sounds luxurious and modern, but it's not automatically superior to radiators despite what showroom displays suggest. Both systems have genuine strengths and real limitations that affect comfort, cost, and practicality.

Here's what separates them in real-world use.

Bathroom vanities take constant punishment from water, humidity, cosmetics, and cleaning products. Proper maintenance can extend their lifespan dramatically - but neglect leads to premature failure even with quality units.

Vanity units take constant abuse from water, humidity, cleaning products, and daily wear. Choose the wrong material and you're replacing it within five years, whilst the right choice lasts decades.
