Where can we put the bathroom - help needed!
Hi
We have a 3/4 bed victorian semi and struggling to make a decision on where to add a bathroom. We will be taking out the ground floor bathroom, to enlarge the kitchen/add a utility and an understairs toilet.
We will be adding stairs up to a dormer (4th bedroom), with large bathroom (not ensuite). We want to add a bathroom on the first floor. This is where we are stuck! We don't want to lose a bedroom. I realise the best idea may be to convert the small back bedroom into a family bathroom but we don't want to do this.
Our current idea is to move the master bedroom door slightly to the right, create an entrance and new door to the bedroom and add a narrow bathroom here. We have a toddler so really want to have a bathroom on this level, but plan to make the top floor bathroom the larger one with walk i shower.
All ideas and suggestions welcomed! Thank you

Our bathroom is a weird shape - where should I put everything?
Comments (23)I love your new plan. You are right to make the doorway from the house to the bathroom, you only need a concrete lintel above it, the wall will be fine! ( Any builder can do this! ) Can you spin the bath round so that it's under the window though?? You will probably have enough room for a storage unit to the left of the door as you walk in. Aswell as running Bagpuss,... we are experienced property developers and i always do all of the plans, and purchasing of materials etc.........also, 50% of the labour with my husband most of the time. It pays to know what's possible sometimes. I get up really early, so, following on from your latest plan, I 3d'd it for you, as i had nothing better to do. The pictures are a little grainy but you get the idea x...See MoreNeed bathroom designer asap - 2 small bathrooms

Comments (13)I wondered where this post had disappeared to. I had a couple of thoughts, though partly covered above. I agree that circular mirror would avoid avoid accentuating the asymmetry of the wall. I would center the mirror above the washbasin with something else to the right, such as the two mirror photo that kikiamack posted. I definitely think a mirror is required, either for shaving or for make-up. I also wondered if you could get the vanity the other way round. I.e. with the narrower end by the bath. I can't totally visualize it, but just think it might look better that way. As for the original post, yes, there are one or two (or maybe a couple more) Pros on the US site, whose behavior is distinctly unprofessional. I think they see themselves as 'a bit if a character' and substitute ignorant rudeness for when they lack an answer to the question that is actually asked. I'm not a pro by any means, but I can see how the design might look unusual. However, I would start from the premise that the room is designed around an owner's specific requirements and not to please people who can only follow the current rules. Be grateful that you have your own site where you are free of their sneering!....See MoreWhere to put bathroom mirror
Comments (11)With our bathroom, there was only really one layout that would work with the plumbing and odd shape, I tried for ages with the designer to think up a creative way to get the vanity on a wall but it just wasn't possible to have that and keep a separate shower. I really like the look of the hanging mirrors but just can't get my head around where you would buy them from, or how you would modify an existing mirror. I think you are right though about getting a dressing table mirror and hopefully should be able to get prettier ones than the basic circular magnifying mirrors that the bathroom shops seem to have. Thanks guys!...See More
