Help with shower screen and shower needed
Comments (2)Hi cjones2011, It's a bit late, but do you have any photos of the finished result?...See MoreTop of rail shower above height of shower screen? Will it look odd?
Comments (16)I am struggling to find any pictures of where someone has the shower fittings higher than their shower screen to see how odd it actually would look like. One of my 101 learnings about getting the wrong tradesperson to "project manage" my bathroom renovation (until he went MIA), was not voicing louder to the plumber's assistant who actually did the shower connections, that what the "project manager" had suggested for heights of shower connections was way too high. I had actually double-checked it on the previous weekend with a friend and we both thought that it needed to be lowered by 100-150 mm, but when I said this to the "project manager" he ignored me as did the plumber assistant who made the connections....I know how a handheld shower only (which is all I wanted) fitting that is at 2070mm in one bathroom and 2020mm in the other bathroom. As there is no shower rail (because I wanted things to look simple), I get my daily stretches just to reach the handheld shower.....I am happy with the progress of my bathroom, except for all of the stuffups caused by this particular "tradesperson/project manager". We live and learn....I can't do anything about what has happened, but can only minimise the impact where possible and learn from all the things that went wrong, if there is ever a next time. I should make a list of the learnings once bathroom is finished....See MoreGlass shower screen or tiled wall divider?
Comments (7)Hi Di, The glass can be kept clean for longer by wiping down the glass with a window wiper after use as it removes the calcium deposit in the water left on the screen. When it comes to cleaning It is no different to cleaning the tiles simply mist the shower tiles and glass panel with pure, undiluted white vinegar. Let the white vinegar sit on the calcium deposits for 15 minutes clean with a sponge and rinse with water. A glass panel will give the appearance the room is much larger then it is whereas if you enclose the shower area with a tiled wall this will close the room off and can make the shower area closed off and in some cases dark and poorly vented leading it the get mould easier. My Opinion would be to go with a glass panel. Hope this helps with your decision making...See MoreBefore and after: a black-framed shower screen
Comments (14)love this, especially the nib wall protuding into the shower space giving you somewhere to place the shampoo bottles. So many bathrooms look beautiful but in real life are not terribly practical. We put a niche into our new shower but I've also put in in the wall above the bath, so often you'll see a bath staged with a stool beside it for the bits you use while bathing, I'd rather have an integrated shelf or niche....See Moresiriuskey
