Hi Fiwi When we look at basins, regardless of the overall dimensions or type of mount we look at the depth of the bowl internally and its shape. For practicality we always choose a deep bowl with a curved bottom of some sort to allow proper drainage. Its a great look to have flat square bottoms with corners and shallow angles as you have now, but the reality is as you said that they need help to be washed out. The deep and wide bowl is better for shaving too as it keeps the rinsing within the bowl. There are plenty of great looking basins that have the above. We often use an undermount or inset basin such as these give practicality without bulk eg as below But there are also plenty of good surface mounted also. Cheers

Hi Deonne If your bathroom requires the two doors, my suggestion is NOT to have a bath. Keep it very clean and neat Across the recess have either a walk-in shower with a 600mm opening OR a glass panel and door. You may consider a seat in the shower ( example on our website ) A recess ( niche ) for shower 300mm high max length Wall hung, all drawer vanity. In-wall cistern toilet suite. Mixer diverter, overhead and handheld shower. Quality tapware, with min 10-year warranty Porcelain floor tiles min 300 x 300. Tile to ceiling, ( unless home has high ceiling, if high, tile to an architrave height ) min tile size 600 x 300, Ceramic to rein in cost

where is the original bathroom, how will it be used, what's the floor made out of and is there access underneath? your arrangement could be ok with tiny fixtures but doubt you would be able to enter the shower as there needs to be about 80cms width for toilet (regardless of the size of the toilet there needs to be shoulder room) and that at leaves only about 1m width for shower and a very small bath needs about 75cm width allowing only 55cms for shower doorway although a shower curtain instead of solid screens could make access easier and a back to wall corner bath would help and keep in mind that if you add tiles to walls that this adds a depth and a walk in shower needs to be higher to allow for proper drainage and much bigger to be screen free so a standard shower cubicle would be so much easier in a renovated kitchen

They sent a plumber out to do some initial checks and see if they could do anything to improve the situation temporarily. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do - blocking up holes would just mean the water would find another path. I’m waiting for a surveyor to come out next week and investigate further. That will help the insurer decide if its rain/storm damage (woohoo, covered) or a result of the hosue not being adequately waterproofed/adequate drainage underneath (not covered and I expect hugely expensive to remedy). Fingers crossed for at least some being attributed to rain!
