Need help with small (only) bathroom!
Comments (29)Thanks for all the comments, they are much appreciated. I am going to try and answer everyone! I think I have a plan outined at the bottom of the following comments/replies. @clofty24 - yes a sliding door was considered but it would either take more room out of the bathroom or consist of major work outside the door. @lottie27111975 @karrrla @tryphic - walk in shower/wet room would be ideal but would require quite a lot of work and as its upstairs been advised against it. Although im getting a second opinion from a local tiler soon. @Ensign Accessories I just photographed at a bad time, most of the time its not so cluttered. However it is the only space to store a lot of the stuff, so hence the many storage options. Corner unit is a no go because the room has no available corners (shower, window, door, toilet). @Rachel FitzGerald I think the toilet needs to stay where it is due to the plumbing of the large waste pipe and the fact my walls are 1.2m thick! @baxterh the back wall doesnt go onto the landing its inside the other bedroom but replacing the wall is currently not an option. Nice idea though :-) @Sharon Boughedda The matching tiles is a good idea, I was only going to tile the shower area and paint the rest a teal colour. But the floor could defo match. I think im going for a unit top sink, but place it partly on the windowsill (which is huge) and partly on a new unit. The window is huge so adds lot of light during the day. @kittihawke I think moving the doors is unworkable unfortunately as that would make more room. i hate the floor tiles so might have to have another look at ripping them up! @jonathandb1972 the window is an original sash window and it would be criminal to block it off I feel. Plus it gives the bathroom a lot of light which helps to alleviate the size issue a bit. Velux isnt possible due to loft above. I think im going to put in 760x900 quadrant shower, with a frameless design so its less imposing. The toilet will stay where it is but with a back wall toilet onto a hidden cistern. Two 500mm cabinets next to each other one with the toilet and another with the sink on top, and worktop on top of the cabinets which goes back and over the windowsill too. The sink will then be half on the cabinet and half on the windowsill (which is big). B+Q are the only place I have found which seem to do slimline cabinets which will make it all fit. Im trying to find a bit of planning software that includes B+Q items and also allows me to include the windowsill!! The tap to the sink will be to the side of the basin so all the plumbing can be in the under cabinet....See Morebathroom decorating help please!
Comments (34)I'd be tempted to go for a dark wooden seat to contrast with the pale decor and suite. The main thing is to make sure the seat is a perfect fit to the toilet pan so it looks really good. That could be easier said than done but an online search may help you find just what you're looking for. Argos has some brightly coloured seats in their "Colour Match" range but I'm not sure they are the right shape for your toilet. Might be worth a look though. Maybe you could accessorise towels etc to match! Angie...See MoreBathroom remodel
Comments (14)Most people get a carpenter to make the panelling. You can use moisture resistant MDF Providing you paint it well enough and seal around any edges that may come in to contact with water it will be fine. Here's a YouTube tutorial on how it's made:- Wood Panelling Tutorial If you don't want to go to such expense, then you could change the Panelling Idea to Beadboard. You can buy Beadboard in sheets, so it's faster and easier to put up. We have Beadboard in our kitchen instead of tiles ( we also live in an old Victorian house ). However, we've also used it or tongue and groove panelling in many renovations in the past. Cheaper options for storage that we've also done in the past is to buy a vintage / antique cupboard on Ebay so that you get the right style and then paint it. You can also mount sinks on them etc I like the last one the most, it's simple, easier to achieve than the first two and does the job, would look great with a freestanding bath on a neutral floor tile like yours, so no need to change the flooring....See MoreBathroom Design Inspiration
Comments (32)You are right. i went into BQ yesterday to see what an 800 x 800 shower was like - IT WAS TINY. I think I need a 1000 x 800 minimum and as such whipped up two layouts where one requires the toilet to move to a new party wall whereas the other keeps the toilet on the exterior wall but moved closer to the window. The second layout proposal results in a small gap between toilet and shower enclosure. Im concerned that gap might be too tiny to walk through? FYI Wall with the window is exterior Wall to the left separates bedroom Wall with the door is internal Wall with the proposed toilet is the party wall with neighbour. i have also posted a vanilla layout of the room size including window and just the door. Is one of the proposed layouts better than the other? Are there any other layouts I could consider? Layout 2 - is the gap between the shower enclosure and toilet be ok? Vanilla Layout Layout 1 - requires toilet to move to party wall....See Morerinked
