The range of bathroom countertop material options can be somewhat overwhelming, but choosing the right material for your bath space is an important aspect of bathroom design—the style, durability and cost of your chosen material are all key considerations.

If you're sticking to a budget for your bathroom install or remodel, understanding the range of materials available for bathroom countertops and their respective pricing tiers will be extremely important. Choosing countertops for bath spaces can be driven almost entirely by your style preferences, whereas kitchens—which require materials with much more functional efficiency and durability—require a different set of considerations.

Granite is at the top of the price and quality scale for bathroom countertop material options. This beautiful, incredibly durable stone is easy to clean and highly resistant to damage.

Manufactured quartz is another beautiful, durable, high-end option; it can imitate the look of various stone types, including granite.

Tile can be a great choice for a bathroom countertop if you're comfortable cleaning the grout lines. Larger tiles are now available that will reduce the amount of scrubbing you'll have to do, and choosing tiles with darker grout lines will help disguise staining over time.

Solid surface materials are another great budget option that can faithfully reproduce the look of stone.
