Shower over freestanding bath, without a curtain. Is my plan logical?!

Free standing baths are only suitable for larger rooms where you have the ability to position the bath with free access all the way round, I regularly remove them from smaller bathrooms when doing re-fits, people like the aesthetics of the free standing bath and plough ahead and install them against a wall, the result is a disgusting accumulation of dust, fluff, pubic hair etc, this will happen quite quickly and you will regret having gone down this route. The concept of having the bath with no curtain is interesting though, in a bathroom around 2.1m square, most of the bathroom will be effected by splashing, the room will need a wet room floor former, and will require that the whole room is tanked prior to tiling, have a look at. (http://www.wetroominnovations.com) I usually use their Maxus formers and Purus gully traps. you can indeed get a flexible waste connection, have a look at McAlpine "Flexcon" range, these are available through any reputable merchants, these are quite substantial and would stand up to semi regular movement, if your free standing bath is an acrylic bath it won't be too heavy, so moving it would be quite straight forward, but I would suggest having small felt pads on the feet to protect the tiled surface, also from a drying point of view, Karcher have a very good little gadget for cleaning windows, which vacuums up the water, I often mention it to clients and any who have bought one have been delighted at how easy it is to use, it will leave the floor almost dry once you have used it, one note of caution would be your choice of floor tile, you will need a porcelain tile that has an R rating, this is a slip resistant rating and would be most advised. another note of caution, because the splashing will not be controlled, any vanity or wood based furniture will deteriorate. I hope this is of some help.

I also think the last plan could work if you change the door and you might need a bifold shower door (too early to add up!). I have to say I agree with the previous comment, freestanding baths are difficult to clean around. Mine is clawfoot which I assume yours won't be be so you don't need to try and squeeze under (!) but it's really hard to clean behind! I don't know what material you're looking at for the Bath but make sure the floorboards are strong enough to hold and also that it fits through all the doorways as they can be wider than standard.

Semi-recessed or wall hung basin?
Q
Comments (3)
Semi recessed would be best I think. I have used a wall hung basin in this scenario but it required some clever work from the carpenter to make the joinery fit neatly around the underside of the basin. If choosing wall hung you'd need to choose one with a rectangular shape underneath to make this carpentry easier, and one where the trap is more than 30cm (+ tolerance) from the wall to clear the joinery.
