Need help with the layout of my bathroom
Comments (18)We are still working on our new house, there is currently a bath with a glass half screen that is totally useless. The water bounces off whoever is showering past the screen and over the toilet, the floor, the ceiling, and it's only a half tiled wall so the wallpaper is peeling. I've considered the P or d shaped baths which give a larger section at one end in which to stand when using the shower and I've seen there are matching curved glass screens to go with them. Two points to consider. 1. If you are not planning on staying a shower could be a good selling point, the water saving of a shower versus a bath. Our last bath hardly saw a look in during 16 years and although it was a lovely deep double ended steel bath it gathered dust and the shower was definately the go-to choice. 2. I am now considering the usability of the bathroom for an elderly relative who has had a stroke, likes baths, but may not be able to get into, or out of one, with dignity intact. I'm thinking that a large walk in shower with additional wall jets could be a good option and the upscale could be a wow factor. Although you may not be in the same position you can never have enough forward planning....See Moresmall bathroom project
Comments (19)Hi We have renovated many small bathrooms. Here are a few ideas. This one has a shower screen that can 'close' when not using the shower - offering more floor space. This bathroom has a very small window and relies on artificial light - however using colour makes the room feel quite spacious. Also incorporating the shower in the tub without boxing it in is also a clever way to 'add space'. This is another example of a windowless room. Using shimmering tiles allows light to reflect giving the illusion of depth. Adding a wall of mirrors will help make the room feel larger Another windowless room. Running the floor tiles from the dry area into the shower area also gives an illusion of space, as there aren't shower trays breaking up the zones. Hope these have helped. Would like to see photo of your finished project. All the best Shannon...See MoreBathroom layout - half wall?
Comments (13)Hi Sam, I agree with the no wall opinion. a plant a good idea. maybe your partner would like to build a plant stand "room divider". it's almost the same as building a wall :). the plant stand can be used to put a loo roll, a candle, incense a decoration etc. it's not permanent and can be moved or dismantle with a minimum impact....See MoreSmall bathroom layout ideas and good bathroom brands
Comments (9)Both Hansgrohe and (Friedrich) Grohe are German companies; Friedrich was a son of Hans who went on his own in the 1930s, so they share a certain heritage. These days, Grohe is larger and no longer family owned. Both produce outside Germany as well as on their original German sites still. Both produce "basic" and "high-end" ranges. They're both regarded well back home in Germany, much of the choice is down to personal preference. Hansgrohe is on average slightly more expensive (but not on everything). They also own the Axor design brand which has a more "ecletic" selection. One can mix-and-match; in our bath (bit messy, sorry - we're using it for the washing up while waiting for the kitchen to be installed), the mixer is Grohe as is the shower wall outlet, the shower rail and head shower arm (just above the shower screen) are Hansgrohe pieces. At least the chromed finishes are very close for the two: Both can be sourced well below retail list prices - if you're prepared to wait, German online sellers for bathroom goods tend to have many-months delivery timelines. For Grohe essentials (the classical Grotherm mixers) at least, any German DIY shop stocks these at very attractive prices (the difference to the UK retail price list will pay for the ferry ticket and fuel)....See Morebubbles bathrooms and tiles
