Chevy Chase bathroom renovations split between two contexts: the narrow vintage bath in the original 1920s or 1930s colonial (5 feet wide, 8 feet long, plaster walls, a medicine cabinet in the wrong place) and the full primary suite addition where there is genuine square footage to work with. Pannello draws both. For the vintage bath, the key question is usually width — a non-standard wall dimension that no stock vanity will fill properly. We custom-size to the room.
Wall-hung is the right choice for older Chevy Chase baths: it opens up the floor, makes small rooms read larger, and looks right in a renovated period home. Mounting in plaster walls uses the same stud-anchoring technique we use for kitchen cabinets — through the plaster, into the stud, never into the plaster itself. We locate studs before drilling, use appropriate fastener length for the plaster depth, and engineer the wall cleat to the specified counter weight.
Fenix NTM or matte lacquer, humidity-rated. Custom width from 18 to 90 inches. Integrated LED accent strip. 3 to 5 week fabrication from final approval.

Why Pannello
Why vanities are different
Vanities are smaller than kitchens but harder to get right — water tolerance, lighting, and the relationship between drawer fronts and the under-mount sink all have to land. We draw the vanity, the mirror, the lighting, and the niche together.
Chevy Chase questions
Common questions about Bathroom Vanities in Chevy Chase.
Can Pannello build a vanity to a non-standard width for a vintage Chevy Chase bathroom?
Yes — full custom means any width. Older Chevy Chase bathrooms frequently have non-standard wall dimensions that stock vanities cannot fill. We measure the room during the field visit and draw the vanity to the actual opening.
How do you mount a wall-hung vanity in a plaster-wall Chevy Chase home?
The same way we mount kitchen cabinets in plaster walls — we locate studs, drill through the plaster into the stud (not into the plaster itself), and anchor the steel wall cleat to solid wood. The cleat is engineered to the counter weight before we order materials.
What finish holds up best in an older Chevy Chase bathroom with poor ventilation?
Fenix NTM is our first recommendation for bathrooms with limited ventilation — it is the most humidity-tolerant surface in our library. Matte lacquer is a strong second option. We avoid untreated wood veneer in bathrooms that do not have reliable exhaust ventilation.
