Fitting a new bathroom.. Ramsgate
Hi,
As with my other post, I am looking for advice and guidance on my new home based in Ramsgate.
I am looking to replace the en suite and main bathroom in the house with something more fitting... I have a clear idea in my mind what i would like it to look like but need someone to be able to translate my basic sketches, pictures and pintrests of tiles and the look of finished bathrooms into reality.
Also, in the main bathroom I am looking to take down the wall between the toilet and the main bathroom as its a wast of space.. they are been divided into a shower room and toilet and bathroom and toilet, rather than one large space..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Comments (8)Thank you for your lovely comments. Karen - the width of the bathroom is 2metres. (Bath 75cm wide, toilet 36cm wide & basin 50cm wide) Shannon...See MoreCan I fit a separate shower and bath into this oddly shaped bathroom?
Comments (2)The plumbing is all on that side of the room but, subject to moving that, I don't see why not. I had envisaged perhaps a shower where the toilet / sink are, with the bath where it is and toilet / sink on the right hand wall as you come in (the wall not shown in the pic)....See MoreNeed to fit a big bathroom in loft, any ideas?
Comments (36)Karen, to be honest with you, you do not really need the council's approval (or Lawful Develpment Certificate). As long as you are absolutely sure that what you are doing is within PD, you can just go ahead. The LDC is for future buyers, and can be gained retrospectively. I didn't wait for it on either of my projects - by the time it came from Lambeth I had basically finished the outside of the loft. It is absolutely critical that if you do this, you make sure your plans are compliant though...with loft conversions that is mainly making sure that you do not exceed the maximum additional volume measurements, and that the dormer is set back 20cm from the edge of the original roof. Do make sure your builder is on top of the necessary building control notifications and inspections though - this takes much more effort, and is nothing to do with planning, and absolutely compulsory. Happy to tell you more about this/answer questions: you have my e-mail address. Everything from the specification of windows,through insulation depth required, to position of plug sockets is controlled and needs to be correct. In my experience, plenty of builders don't know enough about the regs and bodge things. https://www.planningportal.co.uk/info/200130/common_projects/120/what_to_do_next/3...See MoreFitting a shower into low ceiling bathroom
Comments (10)How annoying I wrote a long reply and it didn't post!! Thanks for the replies! Not sure raising the ceiling is an option as it would cost more than we'd gain I think. Interesting to see the different layout ideas. Yes moving the door would mean it would hit the bath. I don't think the hall space would be wide enough for a shower? What do you think? Good to see an idea of how we can reconfigure the toilet sink and bath layout though. I don't think moving the bathroom to the bedroom at the back would be ideal as we'd prefer these rooms to be kept away from the main road. Is it a bad idea to loose a fourth bedroom for a bigger ensuite and bathroom? Is there a way that the fourth bedroom can be reduced in size (but still useable) and making the bathroom (as a minimum) and ensuite bigger?...See MoreRoger Ramsgate
