Comments (8)Hi RE your relocation options, the plumbing is probably going to dictate what your design options really are. Apartment renovations are quite a bit different to normal reno works in that there are often a lot more restrictions as to what you can do. For example, in older buildings, the drain for the bath is often a smaller diameter pipe than the shower as it doesn't need the flow rate. This means that moving the shower to the bath results in long high pressure showers filling up the floor (so you definitely need a hob) because of poor drainage, particularly if you don't keep hair out of the drain. As the floor drain plumbing is often situated either within the slab or penetrates into the ceiling space below, it is not able to be changed without major works and cooperation of others. The water supply and the waste usually go back to a plumbing stack so your options also depend on the proximity to that. Many things can however be done, but the overall plan of the apartment needs to be looked at re stack/access to pipes/check pipe diameters. With a bit of creative re-working we have installed additional toilets and shown other residents some of the possibilities in the apartments we have done but every apartment is different. My tip would be to do some research within your complex as to what has been done by other owners and speak to them about the issues they had to overcome. If you don't know of any you could easily do a web search for your street address and you will see previous advertisements for apartments for sale along with (usually) pics. You could then approach them and ask how it went. It mightt save you some $$$ and time. Cheers...See MoreCan you help us with our kitchen reno floor plan?
Comments (83)I've been playing around with a pantry location. Originally, I was going to move the pantry into the laundry with some custom shelving and cut the laundry space in half. Now, Im thinking of cutting into the study area and building a wall there, and converting the new space into a long and narrow walk in pantry. Either that or build half a wall and put built in shelving in the study. Building the extra wall will reduce the need to cover in the door way that is currently in place and instead utilising it. Thoughts? p.s. this isnt too scale....See MoreHelp with bathroom overhaul please!
Comments (15)your alternate bathroom with the big shower and the old doorway between toilet and laundry should be able to squeeze in a shallow linen or storage cupboard (access from laundry and/or bathroom and built in all around based on the stated dimensions the bathroom appears smaller than in the photos (and/or the walls are thicker or the stated real estate photo measurements are wrong) so make sure you confirm accurate dimensions and consult a plumber before making any plans...See MoreCreativelychallenged
