Advice needed on a bathroom layout
Comments (26)Our house is full of cavity sliders. Twice they were all (but one) replaced due to swelling/warping and rubbing against framework when opening and closing. Some made terrible noise whenever we opened or closed them. Hubby had a hunch they were poorly manufactured overseas and discovered that was the case. Builder sourced a local manufacturer and the whole lot, bar one, was replaced and we haven't had any further issues. The one door couldn't be replaced due to it's location - a wall would have had to be pulled down, just as co-design has described. This experience makes me think it may be a case of ensuring you purchase well manufactured doors for your climate and particular environment, and take into careful consideration the particular location they will be installed....See MoreBathroom layout help - awkward space at bathroom
Comments (5)Yes thank you for your thoughts. the room is 2.8 (with window) vs 3.4m. I do find it a bit annoying too as I don't like that you open the door and see straight away into the shower (though I'm certain the door would have a lock). I'm sure they lined the bath up to be with the window as visually that looks better, but then I find the space at the end annoying. I like the alternative drawings (I like three of them lots!) and I had been considering an drop in bath built wall to wall rather than a freestanding but also finding it frustrating to find a really nice supportive bath and there are less drop in baths than freestanding around at the moment which is a bit annoying. Thanks Anna for the picture, that helps as that looks good (though we would have more space at either end, 50cm) and I prefer the look of yours with some space but not as cavenous... I think I might have to have a talk with my husband as we really need to work out what to do!!...See MoreBathroom layout advice
Comments (8)Agree with others. Just removed a corner shower. Too small. Is there a window in this room ? Also avoid IXL. Fan lights heater. Fan is useless. About to install a Ventair Sahara. Semiframeless shower should open in and out. My bathroom is 2400x 1800 and we managed a 1200 vanity in with 900x 900 shower....See MoreBathroom Layout Advice
Comments (7)I am a 60 year old female that lives here with 2 poodles The ensuite is so small I use the main bathroom for showering I have no need for a bath but think it should be retained for resale value But saying that - I broke my foot 6 weeks ago and because the shower door is narrow could not get a plastic chair in there and did have a bath for a week until I was able to feel comfortable standing in the shower. The kitchen is being renovated with removal of the angled wall between kitchen and living area. The laundry tiles are loose and need replacing and there is no storage in the laundry - hence the reason for consideration of space in laundry and bathroom. The clothes line is not in the courtyard outside the laundry so the door only serves the purpose of access to heater/garage etc The doorway to the 3rd bedroom is being relocated to the hallway - to streamline the entry hall and make the 3rd bedroom part of the bedroom wing with closer access to the bathroom. There are so many doors at the end of the hallway - so by making it one room - it gets rid of 2 doors. The kitchen was stage 1 - but seems scope creep is part of a renovation. Floating floorboards will be installed in the kitchen, living, dining - but bought enough to the do the hall if I want. Which is why I am considering what to do with bathroom and laundry before floors are installed. I do not have formal confirmation - but have been told the internal walls are not load bearing as the roof is a truss system. The house is on stumps not concrete slab so moving plumbing is perhaps easier?...See MoreJohn Ragen
