Sink box on left . Shower rectangle on right . As I said I have been a bit greedy and increased shower tray from 1200 x 800 to 1200 x 900 - so I could gain 100 mm Shower will have a full glass screen to that edge
-
I think I had a mix - because somethings couldn’t be done in certain ranges . I’ll dig out the spec I had once at home .

So ! Re jigged the layout Increasing shower tray to 1200 x 900 ; pinch point over 60cm Sink now on the wall instead . Sink unit 100cm long , depth approx 40 cm Tried to simulate the gaps . Think this is ok

A messy site is a busy site ... ?

True . Just the thought of a non continuous grout line I.e potential leak ...
-
I did find a YouTube video where you just stick cardboard between the 2 colours - grout one ; then do the other . But is there a microscopic gap between grout colours ????

Mira mode maxim !!! ????

I’ve done grouting before but this keeps me awake ? Suppose in a wet area like a shower you have white grout on most the tiles but a vertical row of Grey tiles that really require Grey grout between them . If I grout white on the others ; let it go off ; then grout grey I will have admittedly a hair line crack surely from white grout to grey grout . My assumption being I need a continuous grout line to be water proof ( or it’s my ocd ) Secondly on the floor tiles . I have expansion trims . Meant to go in door ways . But if a grout line doesn’t end naturally in that place I’m not going to split a tile just to introduce an expansion grout line ( it would look terrible ) . Do they have to be in the doorway ? or can they just be introduced where the nearest next grout line would naturally appear ??? Must stop thinking about tiling !!! ??

Then I may need the magic Welsh stud to assist me !

Hey Resurrect away ! ? I had 2 big triple glazed sliders . 5 ‘normal’ triple glazed units . Had to chase a lot once ordered and there were some mistakes in units - too be fair they did sort them . I do suggest you visit the showroom- arrange a visit though . Take plans etc. I’m happy with what we have .

Shower concrete block support Probably put an extra block across the middle for support once I know where the shower waste is going
-
So ; do you just make up the fittings anyway that suits ? - not being rude of course ?
-
Ok - will use black or grey . All the shower / bath etc . Wastes I see are always white . I’m sure a plumber will be along soon to educate us ... like this https://www.toolstation.com/solvent-weld-tee/p36237?utm_source=googleshopping&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=googleshoppingfeed&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh_7R-6Pv5wIVBLTtCh00GA3iEAQYGiABEgLJD_D_BwE pretty sure I’ve glue welded with this stuff . All I really remember is it dries fast - like fast , fast . Like glue two bits together , adjust to suit , 10 seconds later realise it’s wrong . Too late - welded tight !!
-
I do indeed ! So need to extend my vertical with one of those you link to . 90 degree tee then push fitted on that ( below ceiling ) @Onoff you may not know the answer but assuming I run the brown ( standard ) soil pipe fitting to my main ceiling suspended drain - do I use all push fittings ? What about shower / bath waste ? Assume that was all the glued white plastic . Does that need a glued boss strap on the main drain ? Or everything into the main ceiling drain all push fit ?

Moved it around got 3 bars . 18mb download . Upload doesn’t seem to improve .
-
Onsite Just dumped modem anywhere . Got 2 bar strength . Download 10mb - so significantly better . Waiting for Ariel and then will retry
-
Got the Huawei 535 today . As expected indoors is poo poor - struggle to get 2 steady strength bars . Upload around 2mb, download 4mb Ordered the Omni directional aerial - see if that fairs better . Tested this at home not at its final destination I.e my build .
-
Quite possibly! As many have stated my site is not the best organised or cleaned ! Will dig out them bits tomorrow
-
Mega helpful ! I was deliberately being thick ! ? I’ll check the parts in the kit tomorrow. I just grabbed the elbow because it looked right . Will report back soon !
-
I think it’ll go ! Am I correct on the underside I just glue a 3” ( or whatever the geberit pipe size is ) onto it vertically -that’s it ?
-
Yeah I know . It’s getting a 3inch gap past the lintel For the waste ;not breaking into ufh either side . But I must just be lucky ....

So ! Decided now toilet going on that far wall next to shower . Sod’s law stud is exactly above a concrete lintel ? So have to eat into secondary stud wall just to clear lintel - hope there’s enough space
